Best race of the weekend

Daryz beats Bay City Roller, who I saw finish runner up to Opera Ballo in the Heron Stakes at Sandown Park last month, in the Prix Eugene Adam.

 

[Robicheaux]

Think there's a good race in the 3rd.
Still a baby.

Good lad Calandagan.

Silly me. I was referring to the Prix Eugene

Cracking race - enjoyed it.

 

[edgt]

Now his confidence is up he could run up a sequence.

Good lad Calandagan.

Where did you put him up?

Where did you put him up?

I'm happy he won after his bunch on 2222s. Not everything has to be bet related.

I'll be sure to run it by you next time though.

 

[reet hard]

Aye - fat chance.

I've just watched the replay.

Looked like a nicely-run race with the runners finishing in pretty much the right order and Calandagan winning pretty stylishly.

I think Aventure is rated 120 (UK OR) so he's given her the weight and a handsome beating.

Junko (UK OR116) works out only a pound behind Aventure on yesterday's form so the filly was maybe shy of her best. Calandagan works out at 9lbs better than Junko and won seemingly with plenty in hand. His UK OR is 125 so those two appear to have run to the ounce.

Decent form.

 

[Frankel]

She's a good filly and he's brushed her aside. Still think she's a player in the Arc.
Hopefully get decent ground in the KG for Calandagan.
