CITY OF TROY UPDATE ALERT He’s had a nip of grass and is enjoying the weather. 2 stories I won’t the **** miss after next week - City of Troy and the US election.
The Gredley's continue sending some of their nice flat horses hurdling and the latest makes her hurdles debut in the 1.15 Juvenile Hurdle at Newcastle today. Ambiente Amigo achieved a peak rating of 95 on the flat and sports a hood and first time tongue tie for her hurdles debut today. Not a betting prospect at 1/3 but worth a watch to see how she goes.
15:05 Stratford - Atreides Class-5 Handicap Hurdle over an extended 2m2f on good-to-soft ground James Bowen rides for the Neil Mulholland stable. 7/2 (Wm.Hill) best price early-doors, on the ATR site.
Slow and sketchy at plenty of her hurdles but when it came to the business end she absolutely pinged the last and rocketed away from them. Interesting recruit.
Given the views of @NassauBoard and @stick on proceedings at Fergal O'Brien's it will be interesting to see how Sixmilebridge goes in the next at Stratford. Won a class 2 bumper for Ben Pauling before finishing down the field in the Champion Bumper so I guess expectations will be reasonably high.
Lovely performance from Mythical Moon who could be called the winner 3 out. Alan King has got a nice one there (so too maybe Dai Walters and Nicky Henderson in Doctor Kildare who beat Mythical Moon at Bangor and hasn't been seen since).
