Palace Pier wins the Prix Jacques Le Marois at Deauville, just, from Poetic Flare.
I was on poetic flare, thought he might get up at the end
He would have done in another 20 yards. It was a very good performance by Palace Pier, as Gosden said that he was only 80% fit after the illness, which caused him to miss the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood.

If that is Palace Pier 80% fit, considering he was giving 6lbs to a very good Poetic Flare, I see him nearly unbeatable over the mile this year
Yesterday was the first time I’d heard of the Laytown ‘track’ in Ireland. Are there any other race meetings run on courses that are not your usual turf/poly etc set up in what I’d consider normal rules race surroundings?

They race on snow in St Moritz, or ‘the white turf’ as it’s called.
Its where George Baker really injured his head after falling.

Ascot 4.20 .. Sunrise Valley
Haydock 1.45 .. Valley Forge ..
about 18 horses running and apart from 3 of them they were all greys.
There are a few thoroughbred races for grey horses only.
had two winners yesterday, ended the day around even.
Dad in law has picked the winner a few times.
Apparently Spanish Mission is worth a punt. Odds 9/1.
