No but I distinctly recall him tipping Menorah for the supreme, Sizing Europe for the Arkle, Big Zeb for the Queen Mum, and Imperial Commander for the Gold Cup. all at thhe same meeting. (it’s possible he had other winners as well but those are the ones I remember.)It’s become fashionable to knock Mordin, but I wouldn’t dismiss his methods so easily.

Of course some of his theories are somewhat batty, to put it nicely. I distinctly remember a system he devised for the 2000 guineas last year which ruled Frankel out, due to the fact that he had recorded too high (!) racing post ratings as a two year old.

Yes, you can’t make it up. Systems where you rule out horses’ due to being too good :shock:

But that doesn’t mean that he can’t hit the nail on the head occasionally.
