Not sure how good Aidan O'Brien's form is at the moment, had a look today and in the last few weeks he's had a few winners but plenty of loses.
Tempted to get stuck into Churchill on Saturday but something is telling me no.

Righting off an O'Brien fave in a big race Dosent usually end well.

I've struggled to get his horses correct punting wise for a while now, but I wouldn't lay it.

...wow, it's a very short priced favourite, I think it's 5-4 now. Dream Castle @ 16-1 is my little interest but you obviously have more of a squeak than me.

Yes very true, he seems to be confident in the horse. He also has the great Ryan Moore onboard.

I might just watch it and have a bet elsewhere then kick myself when it wins like a good'n.

Could be in with a chance, if placed its like a 4/1 winner and it looks to be between the first 5 in the betting.

...but if it fails to turn up I lose my stake. I think Godolphin have got 3 in the race so they might pull one. As we know Benfodl was impressive on debut yet wasn't declared so Godolphin must have a good one. Churchill is supposed to be special.

I backed Churchill last night when it drifted right out.
Hopeful of a good run.

Loads of improvement to come from Churchill.
Get in.

His big horse form is dubious at the moment. emenant is worth a look at

Churchill looked awful before and at the start of the race but showed it's sheer class.

Was sweating profusely and agitated, I was actually on Lancaster Bomber but Churchill deserved that win

I only backed it as it went to about 2/1 overnight.. too big.
I saw the sweating, start seemed to be delayed as well.
IMO, it never looked like getting beat once gates opened.

Looked like a bit of team orders to me watching it back seems the Jockey on Lancaster Bomber eases off, I know who I'll be backing for he Derby put it that way!

Kentucky Derby about to start on at the races.
Super american coverage.

I heeded your advice and backed Churchill.
Not sure its the superstar though.
But it was his first run and he looked like he was just doing enough, thought the Godolphin horse was unlucky with that stumble.
Saying that, Churchill was almost racing on his own, so swings and roundabouts I suppose.
Wouldn't want to call the rematch though, the Derby will be interesting for sure.
