I believe this is known a horse race. Bay Bridge will get another go from me at 9/2.
I like Bay Bridge as well Slim. I was a tad disappointed with his finishing effort at Ascot but maybe he wasn't letting himself down on the ground as much as he would with a bit of cut. I'm not a ground punter normally but it's very fine margins at the top level - especially when Moore's ride was nowhere near as optimal as the one State of Rest was given. I would be against the 3yos at the head of the market on price grounds and although I like Alenquer this isn't an extended 10f which he might need against the best.
The best bet of the day might be Mitbaahy in the Charge though.
I owe you this one....wish I had a shop full of punters like you I'd lay them all at 9/2 until the cows come home and back him at 6/1 with 3 of the majors now offering that price
Will have a look at that. How do you think Real World will go? He's a fascinating runner to see how the Baaeed is shaping up.
Vadeni supplemented also from what I can see.
Tough race for a 3yo but... he looks the part.

Bay Bridge was done by an inferior horse off a steady pace at Ascot - where's the guarantee of a better pace at Sandown. Answers welcome?
I am surprised no one has mentioned Alenquer as he has a big chance. He's still improving at the right time and on a line through State Of Rest he has the beating of Bay Bridge.
That's a red herring. The difference with State of Rest from the Curragh to Ascot was the quality of the ride. Night and day.
The Curragh race is a far stiffer test as well. I don't think he'll have the gears to win this.
The POW wasn't run to suit a horse needing a stiffer test, and it's the quality of RM's ride that needs questioning; he's no fool and there has to be a reason for it?That's a red herring. The difference with State of Rest from the Curragh to Ascot was the quality of the ride. Night and day.
