He ran a good race again, just lacked the speed when they straightened. Still on a fair mark if he can be found the right race at Chelmsford. I'd love to see him run at Newcastle you know, reckon he could get into a nice rhythm on that track.
Holding his form spectacularly well is Squire. Well handicapped that winner was. £385 to buy the drinks tonight too and give Squire a nice bag of apples.
Mighty mighty Imps. Hardly a feast of football but my ol man in his 82nd year won't give a flying f***. Best team won.
Watched it back a couple of times now and I actually think Luke was a little slow to get going on him. Knowing the horse as we do you need to start riding him while he is still on the bridle. At the 3 pole he should have been getting after him but he waited till he was in the straight and that is too late. One more run this winter probably at Chelmsford in early February then he can have a holiday before coming back for a turf campaign.
