    Was going to leave the race due to unpredictable results and class pedigree of Ta Allak but I liked Jack Crow last season, he ran in a decent maiden and looked a good prospect. Either hes had issues or they have been patient and put him away for this season. 5/1 is a fair enough price all things considered.

    I don't think she's even had 10 winners this season Oddy. Down to 20 horses in the yard from 60. She needed the win. Fair play to her, tough game.

    Job done for Ayutthaya but made to work all the way for it giving 6 pounds away.

    Nice debut from Ta Allak at Newbury, needed the run.

    Cheers lads, nice to be ending the NH season with a few winners and some dosh. Just hope my resolve is steadfast and I don't hand it all back during the flat. Determined not to bother this year. It would help if there was no summer jumps as I wouldn't even bother looking at the racing. Look out for another Lacey youngster called Energumene when it makes it's debut. It won its point at Larkhill on the same day as todays winner and the trainer's assessment of this one was even more glowing than he was about Sebastapol. May well be next season when that one sees a racecourse now.

    Gustav Klimt looks like he’ll only have to show up to win the Guineas, bookies running for cover already.

    Gustav Klimt only has to turn up? He grinded out a length and a half win in a 4 horse 7f listed race in 1:38.6 on bottomless ground. His 2yo form hasnt exactly been franked in the trials either.

    Were not talking about Dawn Approach here just having to run his race to win. Gustav Klimt will have to produce a career best by some way to win the Guineas and wouldnt be favourite with any other trainer, connections massively factored into his price and value long gone at anything under 5/1.
