That Was York That Was
It seems a long time ago since Baaeed strutted his stuff with a scintillating display on the opening day. As good as Frankel? Don’t know. Don’t care. I just enjoy him for what he is and the jaw dropping races he has run. Whenever I’m down I’ll re-run this one and it’ll cheer me up no end. The standout performance of the meeting. Stunning.
There were plenty more really good performances, but will only mention Noble Style in the Gimcrack who looks destined for the top table (yet another one for the boys in blue) and Thundering who came from miles back to be second to Farhan. Got to be a decent race in him.
Good rides, too. Jason Hart and Highfield Princess, Tom Marquand and Quickthorn, Frankie Dettori and Trawlerman particularly
On the betting front Nostrum was going to be my only full bet of the meeting and it was disappointing that he did not run in the Acombe. Otherwise, 12 bets brought 3 winners, 3 places and 1 money back.
