The son of Galileo and Ouija Board will run in saturday's Derby. According to Coolmore (Magnier) he can't lose. A race is a race and you can be too confident....

Thank you btw the one who posted the picture as a foal.

if the trainer son Joseph rides,I have my doubts about his ability with sectionals, I'll be putting a line through the horse if he rides.

Ground is going against Australia - looks like it will be too soft for him.

He was just cruising and according to Aidan O'Brien the best horse he ever trained until now.

I'm just trying to remember if Aiden O'Brien has ever said that about any horse that he's trained before.

Carlo, I don't think so, Aidan O'Brien is a rather modest person in my opinion, so you may say Australia is a hell of a horse. I am looking forward to his next race.
