Post Re: Flat : Talk Reaction Banter
I think possibly the worst days racing in two season for me.

Lemon Souffle 0, could never get a run.
Flourshing 3rd, i'll be glad to see the back of these two year old sprinters.
In the Groove 5th, running on till she got no run inside the final furlong.
Acatenango 5th, awful performance from horse and jockey.

R1 Bright Orange (4th) - did better than I thought she would.
R4 Hedgeley Road (5th) - ran ok but was never going well enough to challenge for a place.
R7 Hanging Garden (9th) - trip was on the sharp side. decent effort under a big weight.
R8 Hands On The Clock (8th) - track didn't suit.
R9 Prophecy (2nd) - good run. raced wide into the straight and that has probably cost him.

well done all winners and placers.

Little Frankie (7th) - Ran on far too late in her hat trick bid. A step up to 7f is definitely need now
Rod Roach (11th) - Not good enough in listed company
William Butler (7th) - Ran well enough, a big race could around the corner
Castellet (13th) - A poor horse
Liquid Luna (14th) - Ran well for a long way before fading
Moohimm (3rd) - Struggled in the soft ground

A poor day for me.

Thanks to the team

R11 Boom Boom (11th) - outclassed. back to handicaps
R12 Killing Time (2nd) - great run. I thought she was nothing but a low grade handicapper but has now placed in a G3 and a G2.
R13 Formidable (6th) - outclassed. another who will revert to handicaps.
R14 Sir Ivor (8th) - never got involved. really poor run this week.
R17 Scriptwriter (15th) - didn't get a clear run.
R19 Cry Me A River (9th) - never got into the race.

well done all winners and placers.

Get What She Wants (6th) - Better run this week considering it was in a G2
Bus Link (3rd) - Only beat 1 home but it was tight for the win. Could pick up a race like this in the future
Zeltweg (6th) - Led up 200 yards from the finish and got swamped. Gutted but the best run for a while from last years Craven hero
Franken (12th) - Needs a low handicap to get near the places

Not much to get excited about today.

Congrats to all winners and placers

It has been a long time since I've been as excited about another league horse, but ahead of next week Ghostzapper has my attention. I really hope he can do it, but Rachael Alexandra wont be making things easy for him over the longer trip so its exciting to see what happens.

Pleased to have won the Irish 2000 Guineas with Czaeria. Class horse!

R21 Scripture (1st) - great effort. ran into trouble inside the last 2f but managed to find a gap and finished strongly.
R22 Tombstone (2nd) - good run. I thought he might win with 1f to go but Liam's horse held on well.
R27 Paperback Writer (last) - never went a yard. sustained an injury during the race.
R31 Happy Ranger (4th) - couldn't get a clear run and got shuffled back through the field. ran on well last 1f but effort was too late. unlucky.

thanks to Davy for the fantastic comms and well done to all winners and placers.

R30-Feed the monster(2nd) ran a cracker beaten by a very good horse
