Really nice run by MISHRIFF, gutted about DL

 

Alenquer 2nd.
Would have been a good each way bet had I done it each way

 

16.10 I-Have gone for Get Shirty first run in the UK after showing promise in France

 

Never looked likely for Alcohol Free. The paddock expert thought she looked light and that this race came too soon. Perhaps they should have saved her for another race at a mile when she is likely to get her ground.

Mishriff hosed up. He has never won when I have been on him and it seemed inevitable he would score when I wasn't on.

Ir panned out like a Group 1 horse beating Group 3 horses. Alcohol Free didn't have her trip and Mac Swiney didn't have his ground (Something I thought thought the TV team would have sussed by now) but other than the stable form not being the best Love had no real excuse for a fairly tame effort. Sometimes these 4Yo fillies don't follow a good 3YO season and she has questions for now.

Lousy day for me, hope others are doing better.

 

Hurricane Ivor was bumped leaving the stalls. He ran on well for 3rd.

Whenthedealisdone was slowly away and raced in the rear thereafter. He stayed on at one pace for a never nearer 10th. It's fatal missing the kick at York over 5F and I think he can do better in time.
