Ayr Gold Cup

[fonz]

Alben Star and Rene Mathis for me

AS has held his form well in top handicaps all season, carrying second top weight but jockey takes 5lb off and he should be bang there again.

 

[Frankel]

Go Far is my tentative selection.

highish draw is vital judged on last couple of days

i'll do a lazy analysis

highest 12 drawn

RACY
BLAINE
FAST SHOT
HEAVENS GUEST
AN SAIGHDIUR
SUPPLICANT
YORK GLORY
BALLESTEROS
LOUIS THE PIOUS
HIGHLAND ACCLAIM
BARNET FAIR
HAWKEYETHENOO

% call is the winner will be 4 5 or 6 year old..which leaves us with

BLAINE
FAST SHOT
HEAVENS GUEST
YORK GLORY
BALLESTEROS
LOUIS THE PIOUS
BARNET FAIR

Blaine looks fine
Fast Shot..won't like the fast ground
Heavens Guest..won't like the fast ground
York Glory looks fine
Ballesteros..needs slower ground
Louis The Pious looks fine
Barnet Fair looks fine

so left with

BLAINE..13.5
YORK GLORY...34.0
LOUIS THE PIOUS...14.5
BARNET FAIR...30.0

a tenner on each for interest

The makings of a nice treble for Donegal if Louis the Pious can emulate The Grey Gatsby before Jimmy's men take Sam on Sunday.

 

[Arkwright]

Ballesteros if the rains come.

Ladweb would probably have won for us if the ground had been a bit softer today but he handled it fine.

 

[EC1]

happy days

 

[Colin Phillips]

Nice one, EC1.

 

[fonz]

happy days

Grand job EC

[reet hard]

Nicely done, EC and edgt.

I'm waiting to hear that Gillespie won the €87 million jackpot on Friday-when was the last time a relatively small owner had such a run of luck.
