1.14.7 : the dream begins
Orlando was the star at Grosbois this morning, requalifying at a km rate of 1.14.7 (just under 2 minutes mile rate) without being pushed and on a track that was one second off according to experts! So at the end of a difficult week settling up, clearing and and vacating La Grande Metairie; we finally allowed ourselves a small dream about his future (well lubricated by champagnne and 'Remy Rouge'). Tomorrow to Enghien with Prince Djo and Monday to La Croise Laroche near Lille where Porto has drawn 4 ..... from whence I will Eurotunnel home late that evening.
