Morning News

Good morning...

Interestingly enough...

The most exciting race of the day is...

The 15:25 at Deauville.

Pinatubo is by far the top rated horse.

And the top three rated are way ahead of the rest of the field.

I feel a visit to the PMU in my immediate future.

Even though I've got an obscene amount of work on at the moment..

The weather looks to be very good today and so...

I'll probably be spending the afternoon in the garden with a nice cold beer and a good book to read.
