Cheers pal needed that one, bit gutted with myself for not backing Queen Kindly and only going for the reverse forecast with Fair Eva
I'll have go with Wings of Eagles 7/2 in the first at Killarney. Was clueless first time in a decent maiden at Galway. His dam was useful over a mile so the step up in trip should help.
What does that Dave Orton be on about eh??? Trying to convince viewers the 6.20 at Killarney is a "top, top race"??? mediocre handicappers Dave rated in the 70's and 80's...calm down mate. Competitive it definitely is. Top class it most certainly isn't. Rant over
Fancied Eutropius at Hamilton 6:40- ran some much better races than the form suggests and you could argue that this is a good bit weaker.
Almost did my conkers on Kings Wharf at Killarney there but Ruby has got me out of jail. That man is riding like a dream.
Certainly a good ride...I imagine you were sweating once he got away at the false start, Ruby didn't panic tbf as it looked like the 2nd had slipped the field at one stage.
Excellent. Going back the end of October. Only one of the trio obliged but I think it would be dappy to give up on Fair Eva (or indeed Found) after this. The former is crying out for 7 furlongs and in hindsight I wonder if it was right to keep her at 6 rather than head straight to a Group 1 over further. Those bookie chappies who have doubled her odds for the 1,000 Guineas after the York defeat (8’s from 4) do, in my opinion, seem to have made a rash and potentially very silly move.
Happy days SBC, any particular place you like to go? Not being nosey but I live here in the seaside town of Exmouth.
Lucky you. Haven’t been for a few years but Exmouth is a lovely place. It’s normally Torquay or just outside.
I see that Sir Michael has a 2YO filly called Exmouth! May debut at Yarmouth on Sunday. Very well bred, as well, as the dam was a Listed winner and finished 6th in the 1,000 Guineas.
