Missed the race but I saw Auguste Rodin was on another off day.

Well done, Sim. They must have trained him to sit closer to the pace, as his Breeders Cup Turf was won from being held up last. Good piece of training from Charlie Appleby I reckon.

I'm keeping an eye on whether trainer Lucinda Russell enters her unexposed and improving chaser Traprain Law in the 2 mile handicap chase at the Grand National meeting. This horse is 2/4 over fences, and both times he had cut in the ground he was impressive.
I am kind of hoping he is entered and he gets his soft or heavy ground, as I think off 138 he'd have a major chance and be one of the best bets of the meeting. Maybe wishful thinking, re the ground though.
Edit. Looks like he'll get his ground. I await the entries.

With all this rain knocking about it's nice to see next week's Craven meeting has the word good in it for the forecast ground. It's mainly a fill your tracker type meeting for me but a couple of layers have priced up the Earl of Sefton and Ottoman Fleet looks worth a go at 6/1. He loves the track, his Measured Time Meydan form looks decent and aside from an admittedly solid looking fav in Royal Rhyme it's not an especially looking tough race.

Traprain Law entered for the 2 mile handicap chase in Ayr's 1.15 Saturday. He's a seriously nice chance if it stays soft.
He could be competing in graded chases next season I reckon. Let's deal with this first though.
