Godolphin have grabbed a gelding (yep, highly unusual) down here called Mental. Trained here by Peter Snowden and ridden by Kerrin McEvoy.

 

Won the Group One sprint at Flemington today at 6.50 - straight into quarantine and off to Blighty early December.

 

Stated aim - 'to win some serious sprints in the UK and Europe'.

 

Watch out for him. He is top class.

Bumped. Mental won its warm up race at Meydan a couple of weeks back and, according to those in the know down here, has a mortgage on the Golden Shaheen in Dubai on Saturday. No McEvoy this time - Barzalona in the plate.

 

Tomato sauce unbackable odds down here. I am hopeful that you lads may get summat a bit more juicy than that.

 

Watch out for this one when it hits Blighty. A flyer.

Apologies to those who did their dough (like me). Ever wish you'd kept your trap shut?

 

Can't believe the run. In Australia, the addition of blinkers added 3 - 5 lengths to him. They seemed to work in reverse here.

 

Don't be put off - he will come to the UK and win major sprint races. That was an aberration.
