Tb Racing Articles

Good work on improving Thoroughbred Racing articles. I've got rid of a few "eye-to-eye stretch duel" type expressions myself and believe that the only horses who should be called "legendary" are the likes of Pegasus and Sleipnir. Good luck. Tigerboy1966 (talk) 21:08, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Placed

More excellent work on improving Tb articles BUT, take care with "placed". In British English the expression "x was placed" means that x finished second, third or sometimes (in a large field) fourth. This is different from American English where the usage is "x placed" and is often a synonym for "finished second". The usual practice is to use Br E for British/European horses.

Plot summary

Hello Forego,

Well done!

Your prècis on the plot summary of "the 2011 film" is much needed.

Keep going!

It is far too laborious. as I commented on in an Edit summary on February 4.

All the best,
