    Very Disappointing run from Viewpoint but a good winner from Andrew Balding.

    Viewpoint is the second horse tonight to clearly have sent confusing signals to Richard Hannon as he was started out this year in the wood ditton and so was clearly well thought of which was why i fancied him. Bronterre also flopped earlier and he was thought their main Guineas hope at the start of the season.

    Well done Boris. Great shout.

    Luska Lad badly missed the break in the last in Ireland. That's 2 bets this week both of which have decided to give the rest of the field 10 lengths start. Annoying in the extreme.

    By the way team, dascombe (and kingscote) are on fire at the moment. One of our old friends favourite combos but well worth some money on theirs and usually at a very decent price.

    Thats why they call me Boris Fenster.

    In all seriousness though, I have no idea and never will why that horse went off 50/1, most incredible thing I have ever witnessed in racing. The race she won at Ripon worked out incredibly well and the claimers record is quite remarkable, Hannah Nunn, maybe a name to look out for because her record on turf is quite extraordinary. I have never seen a strike rate of 5 1sts, 2 2nds, 1 3rd and 3 4ths out of 23 rides for any claimer, never mind a girl.

    Seems the Betfair loyal werent interested in the fact that the race she won last time worked out as well as you could ever hope any sprint to, and the fact the horse was getting lumps of weight from everything through 3yo allowance and the clearly capable riders claim.
