    Well done again Gallop. Amazing strike rate. I just wish I had some spare money to have a bet.

    SANS LOI 7.55 Nkt 25-1 has had a six week break and I am hoping that is enoughed to have freshened him up for an improved effort at decent odds tonight. Not so far back there is a 2L second to Es Que Love over C&D in his form. A reproduction of that off his current mark would be good enough to be in the shake up here!

    I find those ratings exaggerated in the extreme. Lilbourne Lass really hasn't beaten that much. The toughest race it was in was a four runner race that she got beaten in at Windsor and her conqueror that day was beaten out of sight at Ascot. On the flip side ALUTIQ ran a very encouraging race at Ascot and arguably has better form.

    Right. Admittedly not done my homework fully, but:

    Ambiance was beaten 2½L by US crack sprinter No Nay Never (2yo course record) - level terms

    Majestic Alexander (receiving 5lbs) was beaten 1½L by Ambiance

    Majestic Alexander (receiving 2lbs) was beaten 3¾L by Lilbourne Lass (easily)

    I reckon No Nay Never would thrash these.

    Lilbourne Lass form pretty good and 4/1 a bargain price
