Infamy infamy…

… they’ve all got it in for me.  Fallongate abruptly winds to a merciful close, the Fallon six walk free and the recriminations begin.  I haven’t read all of the papers yet.  One article I read said that the case is “far from over”, suggesting that Fallon and others may seek compensation.  Another simply says that there was never any evidence against Fallon.  I’m just glad it’s over and I hope British racing can move on from this. 

On a rainy Saturday it’s going to be hard work for any horse that doesn’t go in this ground.  My clear bet of the day is Pancake, a hearty type making his chase debut who should appreciate the conditions underfoot.  In the big race process of elimination leads me to Voy por Ustedes, but not with any great confidence.
