If a king is going to own a horse, doesn't it make sense to have it trained in the country of which he is king?
So cricket's Manchester Originals want to rival football's City and United. How can anyone say something so dim be allowed to run a business.
So Rebels Romance was withdrawn in Doha because 'he has won 8 million in prize money so we're not going to risk him'. Either this is a stupid or callous statement.
Current Racing Post headline concerns a no-hoper debutant running later because it's owned by Tyson Fury. Desperate appeal to the masses?
We knew Labour would win easily, the horrible twist is Reform. Farage has his foothold and he's coming for all you shirkers, ill, disabled, non-white, non-british, woke lefties.
Only now is PR in the public realm with Farage talking it up. As if it hasn't messed up the Greens and Lib Dems for decades.
Good trial for Ramatuelle at Deauville. Change of tactics, pulled hard and not given a hard race. Would connections be happy?

RIP Annie Nightingale. Such sad news. A pioneer on both radio and TV, a hugely important champion of great music, and a genuinely lovely person, as today's beautiful tributes prove

Netanyahu is now a war criminal but he has long been a war monger.
Baroness Warsi is absolutely essential listening.

This clip is a brilliant watch on so many levels...please don't like it and retweet it widely as it would be so terribly embarrassing for both of them if was to go viral?
