Soul Sister

 

Hurrah for Soul Sister! Will be back later to update results as I’ve been out of the house since 6.30am attending a tournament with my daughter!

 

Ok, belated I know but here’s the catch up from a great Friday, and a disappointing (from the point of view of this thread) Saturday:

FRIDAY

Fantastic Fox - unplaced (5th)

Westover - 2nd
Hurricane Lane - unplaced (5th)

Age of Sail - 1st

Soul Sister - 1st

Tujjaar - unplaced (10th)

Aimeric - 1st


SATURDAY

Arrest - unplaced (10th)
Military Order - unplaced (14th)

The Parent - 3rd

Fernao - 1st

 

Postscript on the Derby, ARREST just didn’t handle the track and the ground - the writing was on the wall a long way out. MILITARY ORDER was very disappointing, the Godolphin horses haven’t been running great lately so maybe (hopefully) there was something amiss and he can bounce back .

As for HURRICANE LANE, he really is an enigma. Doesn’t want it too soft or too firm apparently (despite for, on both!) and definitely has his own ideas about the game. Whether a campaign in “softer” races on the continent would be better for him, or whether to pull up stumps and let him have a well deserved retirement with the ladies I don’t know.

 

Maybe we’ll get a Derby winner today.

 

On a happier note, my early start yesterday was worth it in the end with my daughter coming home from her martial arts tournament with 3 bronze medals in her category!

 

Well Flight Leader didn’t manage it, but Ace Impact a son of Cracksman did, so we can at least celebrate a “sire of sires” moment!

 

10/1 for the Arc, from 33s
