INVESTEC DERBY DAY;Saturday 2nd June 2012

Well that went pretty well, yesterday. I am just recovering now. Missed the Morning Line, so don't know what all the goss is, so am a bit blind.

Will be at a wedding at the out-laws and might not even get to see the racing today, but will be having my twitter on at the back of the church to keep me informed.

Today we could see something special and in Camelot we could be seeing a star. He will probably bolt up but to me is way too short a price for me to be backing. I know a few people who have fancy prices at 20s and so on, who think its in the bag, but is it that simple?

Here's my thoughts, for what its worth and I reckon its worth taking on Camelot with his stablemate Astrology.The fact that Aiden O'Brien runs this one after taking out all his other runners means he should not be underestimated. He surely cannot be running him as a pacemaker as he would have left one of the rags in to blast off in front.I am coming round to thinking that they fancy this one.
He is by Galilieo so will appreciate this trip and better ground and though he has to improve I am sure he will. He won easily last time despite soft ground and will come on a ton for that run. He is definitely the each way value against the hotpot and though  I would love to see Camelot go and be a worldbeater, I just have a little doubt. He won the 2000 guineas, but not in as taking fashion as you would like to see in an odds on shot here. He will probably win but is definitely no value.

Take Astrology to emulate his dad and nick one back from Camelot's dad Montjeu, who has been the daddy in the race in recent years.

The Epsom Dash is a real spectacle and a speculative punt is Stone Of Folca. He goes well really fresh, likes 5 furlongs on fast ground and is trained by a man who knows how to handle top notch sprinters. Backed him at 33s earlier in the week so hopefully he can nick a place.

Anyway, got to go have to polish my shoes.

Go on Astrology spoil the party, I've seen it in the stars.

Yours
