I saw that today, I thought that 10f was on the short side for him, never mind a mile.

I think that he should be ok around Epsom, he is a fairly compact type which should help. I'd agree that it isn't certain though.

he wasn't totally happy on the undulations of Newmarket though..he's won on two flat tracks
i couldn't back him tomorrow tbh..i think he isn't going to be suited to the track..and i'm not convinced he's better than Midday or even Dandino [with a bit of improvement] on form shown.
Is the drop back to a nippy 12f ideal either?..i know its a long straight and uphill late on..but you have to get to the straight round that roller coaster of a track first
there are a lot of questions for SNA to answer tomorrow..imo

Ballydoyle seem to be trying to invent milers. They should be buying Dubawis and Oasis Dreams rather than Galileos and Montjeus.

Breeding books - dosage etc...........different thread. The world is watching
They've got a few more Oasis Dream's this year... One of their better Juvenile's is an oasis dream, can;t remember which.

Agree about Dandino, he's a much better horse than last year and really battled last time out at Newmarket and he thrived at this time of year last year. I think he'll have a job turning St Nic over but I'd fancy him to beat Midday and at least give the favourite something to think about. 11/1 is a cracking price.

I cannot believe SNA is odds against. I am off down to Ladbrokes to put my money where my mouth is. Can't place lay Midday, as I have no Betfair access today, but I would do so.

Doesn't look like the 2-1 I was hoping for about Midday will materialise. 11-8 is too short; no bet.

He made it but that was some effort from Midday.

That's why they want Ryan Moore as stable jockey.

Very nice. He hated the track and they went too slow for him really.

SNA didn't like coming down the hill imo and was outpaced at the start of teh straight..Midday looked all over the winner until SNA got himself straightened out..outstayed Midday in the end..on a course that he doesn't want to be running on again

A furlong out I didn't think that he'd make it.

Where to next for SNA? Was it the track, is he not straightforward or both?

Despite that, he'll still be playing second fiddle in the yard to So You Think.

The track and he fair hits the ground as well. Not sure Ascot will suit. I'd go for the International and then the Arc.
