    Hi lads I just signed up to tell you about a tip my sister gave me today. She works with David Redvers for Pearl Bloodstock in the UK. Said to back Hydrgen @ 50-1 for the Derby. I don't know how accurate this is considering the price but just passing it on. Will do a small e/w on it myself :)

    Always wondered what happened that horse. Was bought for 2.5mil in the sales over a year ago, half brother to authorised. But never ran as a 2yo

    Gailileo? I'm not suggesting a big bet, just passing it on. Australia looks a top notch horse on breeding and performance so far.

    Galileo was a 14l winner of his only 2 yo race, Commander In Chief was unraced as a 2yo and won the Derby in 1993. Last years 1,2 in the Derby were unraced at 2yo and at least this Hydrogen is likely to give you a run for your money as he was ready for a run as a 2yo and talked about, plus Peter Chapple-Hyam will most definitely be targeting the race for him.


    @ 50/1 he's the right type to place in behind Australia Australia Australia.

    Here's an unraced one to keep a watch out for if he turns out early next season.

    Annus Mirabilis - Ruler Of The World's 3/4 brother by derby sire Montjeu.

    Lads what would usually happen the 3yr old backward types of O Briens that didnt make the track last season,sold or sent to the glue factory was waiting on a two or 3 of his to run I heard were decent,another four carat was a 2yr old that never made the track they think is good?
