• Only the bit in the hook about the largest prize in British horseracing is cited; it doesn't cover Bendigo's victory. Otherwise good to go.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 14:36, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

• Footnote #11? --PFHLai (talk) 14:43, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

• Ok, it's official, I'm an idiot. I misread that paragraph.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 16:42, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

• Don't be so hard on yourself, Sturmvogel 66. I'm sure you're not an idiot. Anyway, thank you for the review, and have a wonderful Columbus Day long weekend. Happy editing. Cheers! --PFHLai (talk) 17:42, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
