    I wonder are they setting him up for a big chase somewhere ?
    Interesting run today - not massively eyecatching but equally ran well enough in a race that wasn't run to suit. Plot job for the Grand Annual perhaps?

    Thought Tudor City was the one from that race for future engagements to be interested in myself.

    Disappointing run. Stewards had the vet examine the horse, but no visible issue...might have been the fast ground

    Not long before the Flat turf season is here, and this filly is a horse I expect to be profitable to follow

    ​Model Guest


    Did not win as a juvenile but was 2nd three times. Though it was her two runs in Group races that caught my eye when despite still green [6 runs in total] ran with credit.

    Real story for me though is that she is trained by George Margarson, who is not a household name but knows what to do when in charge of a good horse especially one of the fairer sex

    Backed as if defeat would not happen [Sp,10-11]...bit it did!

    Hung again which cost him the race, might have needed the run though and probably will improve when back on the turf

    Dark Horse for the upcoming Flat season is ​Malika I Jahan

    A filly trained by the under rated David Lanigan. She caught my eye when outrunning odds in a decent October maiden at Newmarket finishing 6th.

    This is the horse they wanted to run in Lincoln yesterday , according to Colin Keane.
    He must be very well handicapped off 81

    Could be Eddie's new Camira, a star for Grey and myself nine/ten years ago.

    Not sure if he is still about the place but the 'Slim Exacta' could be on in the 7F trial at Leopardstwon on Sat. 1. Madhmoon 2. Could Be King.

    Solage was very impressive winning for Jim Bolger at Gowran Park during the week.Interestingly she was sold for a million at the sales after finishing second in a French maiden last year.I can see her being campaigned at Group 1 level.

    Disappointing run, though after looking the first beat kept on.

    Ground probably too quick, or needs much further

    Wears cheekpieces for first time tomorrow [2.10 Newcastle], and trainer says the horse worked exceptionally well in them last week....so each way @ 9-1 [Bet 365]
