Ascot 19/07
Hey all,
With the cancelation of this afternoons meetings at Moe and Newcastle, i have turned my attention to this evenings meetings from the UK. Starting to watch a few videos and thought i might throw out a few ideas, get some discussion going, as much for myself as anyone else that may be interested.
Race 1
This is a real tough race to start with. Most, if not all of these runners have won at sometime in their short careers. As a result, i'm having a bit of trouble lining up the form, as this is the first time a lot of them meet. That being said, i'm gonna' take a stab here and go with Declaration of War. I wouldn't be surprised to see several likely candidates win this, but i was impressed with his win last time out. He sat just off the pace and produced a strong run to the line to win by a length or so. Other candidates of note would be Henrythenavigator who i am willing to take on, Bobs Surprise, Luck Money and Pencil Hill. Pencil Hill beat the well regarded A.P O'Brien runner, Achilles of Troy last time out. Bit of a lottery, few decent chances, Dec. of War for me.
Race 2
Hard to look past the Aussies here. All the hype surrounding Miss Andretti is starting to put me off, don't know why as she'll probably bolt in. 4 from 4 at the distance and 5 from 6 1st up. Hard to argue a case against her i suppose. Interesting to see how the others go;
Bentley her main danger? Interesting runner at $10, on you-know-where.
TT???
Or Magnus perhaps, bit of a dark horse 'ol Magnus.
Back with more later...
