Saturday Result Franco Grasso - unplaced (12th) Sunday Results Evocative Spirit - unplaced (7th, Handicap at Doncaster) Monday Results No Runners
No runners today, but here are the runners for the next few days as I am off on hols tomorrow! If i have a spare moment I’ll try to keep updated, but otherwise will catch up when I am back.
The UK has the Wood Ditton stakes for unraced 3yos but France has the Prix Juigne. Run over 2100m at Longchamp it was won by Delius, a Frankel colt out of a Daylami mare. Owned by a Coolmore syndicate and trained by Rouget, he's well bred as his 3rd dam, Eljazzi, is also the 2nd dam of both Invincible Spirit and Kodiac. He won like a very good horse and his next outing is awaited.
I'm back from my holiday! A couple of winners/notable places while I was away: 28th March CADOGAN PLACE - 1st (3yo Novice at Southwell) 29th March FIVETHOUSANDTOONE - 1st (Handicap at Newcastle) 5th April HANS ANDERSON - 1st (Conditions race at Dundalk) 7th April DELIUS - 1st (3yo Maiden at Longchamp) THE EUPHRATES - 3rd (Group 3 at Leopardstown) 8th April NATURAL GIFT - 1st (3yo Maiden at Toulouse)
Worth noting for next week’s Craven Meeting that the first Frankel 2yo of the year is entered to run - his earliest 2yos previously haven’t been out until mid-May. BRETTON WOOD is the first foal out of 2yo G1 winner Pretty Pollyanna, running for his owner/breeder The Gredley Family and trained by James Owen. Also at the Craven meeting, Frankel’s half brother Kikkuli is set to have his second start in the Alex Scott Maiden.
Amazing, thank you. The kids didn’t want to come home and I have to say I was blown away by how organised Disney was - it was just all so slick and hassle free.
