Meanwhile, Gareth Southgate is proving that nice guys do finish last… With the fate of the Premier League trophy sealed by Manchester United ([2.0] to win Champions League), attention can now turn to the destiny of those engaged in the relegation rumble.
Brian and Ben have been the buzz names in racing’s latest attempt at a rebrand this week, but a couple of Dicks could come to the fore at Newbury on Saturday, writes Racing UK and betmaverick.com analyst Graham Cunningham as he runs the rule over the jolly and nominates a live longshot for one of Europe’s flagship mile events. Paco looks the boy now his Lockinge price has drifted Connections have billed it as the race in which Paco Boy can finally “put his critics to bed.” I must admit I was one of the doubters at the start of this week, but it is all a question of price when you are a punter and there is a strong case for arguing that Paco Boy is now very backable for the Juddmonte Lockinge Stakes now.
Most of you, (I wasn’t old enough) remember Alyssa Milano from the show Whos the Boss , or evn the smoking hot mediocre singer, but I know Alyssa Milano as the hottest diehard baseball fan I’ve ever seen.
