The 2025 Prix Morny

[Ian_Davies]

Gstaad, the Coventry winner, Venetian Sun, the Albany and Duchess Of Cambridge winner, Wise Approach, the Rose Bowl winner, Coppull, the Richmond winner, a French horse with the Cen suffix (imaginative) who probably can't win and....this fella:

Outfielder set a new 2yo track record, but tbf it has already been broken 24 hours previously so it must have been exceptionally Firm.

Extra furlong tomorrow and easier ground, but he sure makes the race interesting.

Another form of disgraceful aftertiming is what I call "back board pricing" as in "I got 8/1 Outsider and it's 6/1 best now."

Looks special but we've seen this before!

It ain't Churchill Downs round a bend, it ain't Firm and it's a sixth furlong.

I like Gstaad, but this is an easier six than at Ascot, so I thought I'd take a chance at 8s.

Should be a good race.

Tony Bloom can do no wrong. The second did nothing to dispel the notion that he’s very good.

Good filly that in my (and surely everyone's) book.

The extra pound (four not three, I think) weight-for-gender over there will have helped a bit IMO.

Looks sound form to me.

First Group 1 for Clifford Lee.

Prix Jean Romanet in 20 minutes (I only typed that so I could say "Prix Jean Romanet" - it's a Cafe Rouge instead of Red Cafe thing).

I'd say things didn't entirely go Ryan Moore's way there on Bedtime Story.
