I should also say that the 1000 gns on Sunday 4th, 15:50 at Newmarket, has a chart radical by triplicity, with Venus LHr and the Moon just past the conjunction with Jupiter. Otherwise it is almost the same as Saturday at 15:50

Side-stepping an opinion as why Night of Thunder won at the moment:-

My thought before the race was that Jupiter would represent Kingman. (Jupiter = the kings men).

If Kingman had won I would have thought the LHR (Jupiter) was strong but the chart was not radical would have been worth noting. As it is, a strong LHR and not radical does not support a favourite winning.

I'll have to see if this line of thought still stands scrutiny after the 1000 Guineas.

2000 Guineas:

Make of this what you will.

I have used the 5th house cusp previously and its Sabian symbol to choose the name of the horse.

Using Placidus cusps, the 5th house cusp Sabian symbol is 'an unexpected thunderstorm'!!

Tomorrow it is 'a deserter from the navy'

In Greek and Roman myth, Jupiter is 'Lord of storms, cloud gatherer'.

The POF antiscion is bang on Venus in Pisces. Venus rules the 9th. Jupiter rules the 4th, and sits in Canopus. The oldest known expression of this constellation is the vessel used by Osiris and Isis after the great deluge which flooded the earth.

Of course it's easy to be clever in hindsight. Well done, Nathan.

1000 Guineas

The cusp of the 5th next aspects Mercury by Trine.
The Lord of the 12th is the Sun.
Both are in Taurus ruled by Venus.
The Part of Victory in Horsemanship I cast to 22VIR29 and applies to Mercury by Trine.
The Sabian symbol for the Campanus cusp of the 5th is "A soldier receiving two awards for bravery in combat."
Bracelet to win?

1000 Guineas

I'm sticking with my two picks from Friday - Sandiva and Bracelet - e/w and a win respectively.

My other bets today are:

13:45 Salisbury:
5th Cusp quincunx Mercury, conjunct MC.
Mercury Magic sounds too good to be true at 8/1, does it not? :'

16:35 Salisbury:
5th Sextiles Venus - Saucy Minx 8/1 :-T

Anyway, i'm off to watch The Arsenal secure the most important trophy in English football - 4th place :shock: , so i'll miss the big race today.

Good luck!

Missed an easy and profitable winner in the 3:10 at Newmarket today (Sunday 4 May). Lord of the Day and Lord of the Hour were the Sun. The Campanus 5th was in a very close applying trine to the Sun. Goldream won at 25/1 carrying colours of yellow and black.

Sometimes it is that easy :D
