Lost ...

... at the start ! And how many time have I said that ! Geoffrey is quirky - and no more so than at the start - which is crucial .If he's not on the move into the tape then he'll just go on to his hocks and lose his pitch . Don't mind losing - but frustrating when he has not run his race . Mind you - the winner was really impressive - and in reality ours was only there to try pick up some loose change - but alas ...
However - that didn't stop us from having a superb weekend . The French Gallop certainly know how to entertain the owners - helped with copious amounts of fine champagne - which seemed to suit Chris and Debs Queen - who accompanied us for the trip .
And it was great to catch up with Emmanual & France and kids.
They had a wonderful Sunday with two wins ! We got to see the Grand Steeple Chase Du Paris - and that's a sight to behold ! Don't think we'll enter Geoffrey for that one ... just yet!
