 Re: UKRA Newsletter
Great read as usual. Couple of points. The Juddmonte was one of the best races of the season and I'm sure there will be more to come. The next big 10f race should be at Ascot in the Champion Stakes and I'm willing to bet that my entry there will surprise some (and no Taran is unlikely to be running but is penciled in to run his last race in the Breeders Cup Classic). As for Nehebka, the odds are out as the form for the horses is screwed up. The only previous form for Nehebka is the 7th last time out at the Prix Maurice which accounts for the juicy odds  . The form for a lot of horses is not quite right and probably has something to do with the break we had when things had to he changed around at week 5. Nehebka and Nortia are actually best at 6f though to be fair they can run 5f too but generally Domnu/Gerra will run faster more consistently at 5f. I had Nehebka down simply as I wanted her to have a G1 win before the end of the season and given how few G1 5/6f races there are left, I thought prudent to run her in case she didn't win and needed a second bite. Domnu is the sole sprinter left without a G1 win and will probably run the Abbaye unless conditions are not close to good.

 Re: UKRA Newsletter
Thanks for the nice review on Master At Arms.
Finally he ran a decent race, really disapointing in his first two outings. He was easily my best horse in my own ck trials.
That was 2 winners this week, making 6 winners in the last 3 weeks, 9 winners in total. Very pleased with season so far.

 Re: UKRA Newsletter
Bl***** hell you're quick Paul. Great write up as usual I really enjoyed the Ayr Gold Cup and to be honest before the race I was looking at that and had myself down for Wannabe winning the race. Didn't really think Joe had a real shot given his horse was going to be carrying near top weight but Conquistador showed real class in that win. I have to admit I don't watch many races I'm not involved with but I do watch most of the sprints and the Portland was a nice win for Anadin as well. Almost like watching one of mine get a lead and close it out  . I think Joe will probably up the handicap a fair few pounds on that performance. As for Yima.. I'm not sure I'll run her again this season. The remaining G1s at 12f have Tatosi pencilled in and the only other suitable race would be the G2 Champion Stakes at Ascot. Not sure I want to run her carrying 6lbs more than the field seeing as last time she did this she came second.. but that's something to decide later. Can't believe the season is coming to and end. It's been well run and hopefully the next season is even better.

 Re: UKRA Newsletter
Couldn't the fm champion stakes at Ascot be changed to g1 given that it is now G1 in real life?
