    Will be interesting to see if she can uphold the family honour.

    I also like Romantic View, who is a likeable filly who puts her head down.

    P.S. how long until Goreisking comes along to say “Cuff, bridle :good:

    :yes:

    About 2 strides after the race…!!

    Hoping Hannon can strike but a hard task with Cuff and Queen Kindly in the line up
    Grizzel is a good horse who can finish fast, the trouble is she takes a while to get going and might get outpaced early on.

    I am always right tho… fancy Queen Kindly myself. She could be anything and won with plenty in hand. The way the race pans out it might set it up for the near side as well with the American. Spencer is terrible but you cant knock him on big straights in these type of races. CUFF definitely the form horse but I would favour Queen Kindly. Its a race to watch for me

    I do fancy CUNCO extremely strongly for tomorrow I dont know why he is the second favourite!! Apparently CHURCHILL is very good and has been hammered in the betting but we will see!

    But when I am telling you that these favs will definitely win and they are 5/2 and 7/2 you should be lumping on!

    It would continue the fairy story if Queen Kindly won in the style
    of her daddy, but I like the look Of GRIZZEL. She needs
    to prove she will handle the going, but I’ve no doubt about the trip the
    way she was running on strongly at the end of her 2 5f races. I took 8/1
    this morning, one online bookie still stands that, I think it’s a decent
    bet.

    Queen Kindly best in race for me, typical Spencer ride sometime he gets it right but as usual he messed up today again.

    You must get your horse settled and switched off! How can a horse run in a nice rhythm when its isolated? He should of tagged in with the main group!

    Queen Kindly ran very well and traded at 1.12 in running, trainer expected her to win so seems disappointed.

    Still hardly disgraced the frankel name.

    Yeah he expected her to win, I think he needed permission to let her run also so he must of told them she will win.

    1 winner in every 6 runners
    4th in prize money
    2nd in total wins

    He has more runners/horses than most but they are not the most expensive or not of the sexy pedigree types as what Gosden/Stoute/O’Brien get year after year. The loss of Hughes is bigger than you’d have thought as well as with his experience not just for riding but for debriefing after races which can make a difference.

    I backed second and third.

    Second was all over the winner on the line. The third was clearly held close home. I don’t have too much time for Spencer but would much rather have him than Murphy who will always be second division. Very fortunate to have that job, but for how long?

    At the moment there is a ridiculous hype surrounding the Frankel offspring.

    Queen Kindly ran a good race. At this stage I think 5f would’ve suited better, she was stopping last 150 yards. Maybe on fast ground she’d last home better.

    I think when conditions fall right she can land a group one.
