I'm new to the forum and can't believe there's even more hard core race nuts than myself. I sit down with the paper at work and all the teachers around me must think I'm some desperate punting loser (maybe it's that and the fact I've got half the school in a punter's club they don't want to be involved in)

As for the Plate I agree with most. ES to blouse them but it's hard to fault RTW's form. I'm hoping RTW won't win because I wanted to back Private Steer in the Plate a couple of years back before she went amiss.
I've been waiting to back ES for a while now and won't drop off him on one bad run. The speed on today will suit too.

I think I'll go a trifecta with
El Segundo/Racing to Win
from
Casual Pass
Lad of the Manor
Pompeii Ruler

Although I rate them I think I'll risk FOO, Grey Swallow and Miss Finland (She might me the 5th runner up)
