The 1400 looks too far for Le Var. Hopefully Homer can confirm. Placido was green in running last time and still managed to win going away. I think that run was enought o confirm he can win this race. Just my opinion of course.

Anton will now ride Le Var which may well see him get the 1400m?

Is Anton really god? ()

Le Var is a smart sort
