Today sees the start of the new Stall Numbering system in Britain. Previously stalls were numbered ascending from the left (looking from behind the stalls) meaning on left-handed tracks a low draw was on the inside but on right-handed tracks a low draw was on the outside. From today the stalls will be numbered from the inside-outside meaning that at all tracks stall 1 will be on the inside.
Had to smile at the news in the Racing Post this morning concerning red hot Guineas favourite Frankel out running the 7.15 from Newmarket to Cambridge! The colt did look impressive by all accounts finishing fully 20 lengths ahead of his half-brother, and last years Lingfield Derby trial winner (disappointing in the Derby itself) Bullet Train. He has been cut by all firms in the Derby ante-post markets.
