Good morning everybody, we had three selections yesterday and here is a short review. Baryshinkov was held up in rear, he came with a run up the inside but could not get to the all the way winner Howzer Black. I think this was just an average performance by the horse. Western Music was quickly…

Good Morning everybody, we had four selections Saturday and here are my thoughts on their running. Dance Fever in my opinion was raced too far off the pace to get really involved in the finish whereas his stablemate Aratus was ideally positioned. Dance Fever ran on for 4th without bothering the winner at all. Khaadem…

Good Morning everybody, we had one selection on Thursday and here are my thoughts. Beach Break was raced prominently, he came with what looked to be a winning run at the last hurdle, he was mown down by The Blame Games late run. Beach Break wandered to his left after the last flight and I…

Good Morning everybody, we had one selection on Wednesday and here are my thoughts on how it went. Militia was quickly away but was hard ridden 2 furlongs out and was eased once headed inside the final furlong. I can see no real reason as to why the horse ran poorly. We move on and…

Good Morning everybody, we had two selections on Monday and here are my thoughts. Sir Plato with conditions to suit ran really poorly, he was raced wide but that should not really have been an issue.

Good Morning everybody, we had 4 selections on Saturday and here is a short review. My Oberon was held up in rear, he was running on when whacked in the head by a rival’s whip. He looked beat at the time and did not really give his true running today. Pleasant Man was a little…

Good morning everybody, we had three selections on day two of the York Ebor meeting and here are my thoughts. Magical Morning was a little tapped for toe around 2 furlongs out, he ran on very well though and just failed by a head. Escobar sweated up a little before the off. He ran on…

Good morning everybody we had two selections on day one of the Ebor meeting and here is a short review. Kemari raced prominently and looked to be going well enough, he found very little and folded tamely to finish last of the eight runners and clearly, he did not give his running. Scaramanga was given…

Good morning everybody, we had two selections on Monday and here are my thoughts. Hurricane Ali was held up for a late run, he looked to be travelling pretty strongly but was caught out 2 furlongs from home by an injection of pace from the winner. He did run on but was second to a…
