It’s been a turgid week of racing so far this week and we’ve had to wait until Friday to see some decent horses strut their stuff - couple of trackers out, too.
Atherstone Warrior - 2:00 Epsom - ran a very nice fourth in the Brocklesbury and won next time at Thirsk only to disappoint last time at Ascot where he led for a bit before dropping away and finishing last. 40/1 and not worth doing anything more than taking another look at him unless there’s some market action.
Koy Koy - 2:35 Epsom - was going well and easily at Newmarket last time where he was worst affected by the argy bargy - it was a blanket finish and he would have been part of it, I think , had he not been badly hampered. Have to take it on trust that he’ll cope with Epsom. I’m also a bit nervous of Dutch Decoy who I thought was unlucky not to win at Newmarket in April, although he’s been second again since, followed but a very disappointing run at York. If he bounces back from that he might give Koy Koy a run for his money, but it’ll be without me.
Mid Air - 4:15 Chepstow - was very unlucky last time at Ascot where h raced in rear and tried to challenge up the rail only to be thwarted time and time again until it was too late. That was a Class3 race and it’s Class5 for this one so wat he’s doing at 9/4 is anyone’s guess.
Enjoy the day.
