    Good looking filly with plenty of scope to improve. Possibly requires a tongue-tie. Has gone well in past when ridden by an amateur

    A useful looking leggy filly. A progressive chaser who makes the odd mistake. Genuine and reliable.
    May the horse be with you.

    Hmmmm - would definately have a squiggle B)


    I reckon it would be -

    Long distance chaser, gets 4 miles easily. goes well for conditional jockeys, but has been known to be reluctant to commit when under pressure. Unreliable at the start and often unruly.

    Tried and tested old handicapper who knows her way around, after a few false starts earlier in career. Now has found the trip she needs, and likes to race in very much her own way. Often needs restraint in attempting to dominate and make all, occasionally resents being bustled in big fields. Goes on any ground, though tends to fade over really Heavy going. Rating 205.

    Headstrong 3yo colt, best at a mile but perennial underachiever. May respond better to a harder ride.

    Long in the tooth, gone in the wind, difficult to know why this gelding is kept in training. 59+ $$

    B m by DARSHAAN ex PLAYING FOR KEEPS (GB)

    Good walker, highly tried, reasonably consistent miler, placed in Listed company, rated 103. Trier but occasional displays of temperament and tail swishing at end of races. Won 2 at 2, 1 at 3 and 1 at 4. Retired to stud 1982, poor breeding record but dam of:


    1983 b c realised 3rd top price at Houghton in 1984. Serious colt, Grp 2 winner at 3 and Grp 1 placed at 4 rated 119. Plenty still to come and should do well at stud.
    1984-89 Barren
    1990 slipped
    1991-97 barren
    No further returns
    Just Singin' the Blues ........

    Once useful sprinter ( rated 109 ). Best days long since gone. refuses to settle, may have one more big race in him.
    You should not confuse your career with your life.

    Terry 120 46 gr. h. Chevalier 110 - Towelling Down 130 (Irish Lunatic 140)

    Tall lengthy horse. Sometimes carries condition. Lazy sort who needs plenty of driving but responds to pressure. Jumps well but needs long distances these days. Has worn blinkers and needs them.
