    I bet it on debut at lingfield last year, we all had a ****ing fortune on it, i was like i swear i've seen that horse win before, it must of been in a dream, we all put about £100-200 on it because we were up on the day a lot, got it about 8/1 and think it ended up 9/2, anyway came flying at the finish and just failed to get there we were so gutted! Few weeks after found out there's two of them <laugh>

    Anyway, i've bet on it everytime since, ****er still aint won!

    Cherry Leyf in the 8 50 Yarmouth 20/1 e/w btw, expected to win a race soon so add it the notebook regardless. Probably not tonight as there's been no money for it and Williams' usually do, but it's in very good form @ home apparently and this is a crap race

    That is a really trappy handicap to close the card at Yarmouth and you couldn't confidently put a line through any of them. Gun to the head I would be on COOL BREEZE but the drift on that one looks alarming.

    There are currently three horses called Ulysses in training in major racing nations: Ralph Beckett’s three year old gelding that ran at Lingfield; Sir Michael Stoute’s four year old colt that ran at Sandown; and George Wood’s five year old gelding over in America.

    I think they got away with the names because they were probably all registered in different countries. The Eclipse winner is Irish bred and, obviously, the American one is American bred and the three year old was bred in Germany.

    On horseracingnation.com, they are Ulysses_1, Ulysses_2 and Ulysses_3 in age descending age order.

    They are registered as Ulysses (IRE), Ulysses (GER) and Ulysses (USA). There has also been a Ulysses (SAF), a Ulysses (AUS), and a Ulysses (GB).

    Unfortunately, on the race card, they don't show their full names
