Ran well to finish a close up 4th, horse deserves to get his head in front as this class of race is a bit too much at this stage
 
McPherson goes up in trip tomorrow (3.55 Limerick)

Tough maiden but is a each way price around 6-1

Decent looking race alright G1. I quite fancy McPherson in it myself over this trip. How about this Espania... 3 million euros worth of an animal, I'd be sweating buckets watching her walk around the parade ring, let alone run. It's interesting as King Of The Castle was held behind McPherson on previous running over a mile but the bookies will always favour O'Brien in the betting.

Good luck.

She would want to be for the price she cost. She would want to be training herself and a few others at the yard as well.

I often find these massive purchases flop before being retired to stud, it will be interesting to see how she goes now with the support behind her. She's bred to be good so she could prove just that.
 
I have no idea rudey but what are the chances that a re-shod horse would have won the race in any event? Have you ever seen or heard of a report that a horse didn't win because it was re-shod before the start? How many horses need to be re-shod before the start? All I can say is that if a horse spreads a plate going to the start, it should perform better if it is re-shod. I doubt it would run it wasn't OK to be re-shod
charlottetown did before winning the derby only horse i was given 10 months before it won
