I’m happy to oppose Death here with Augusta Kate 7/1 (could of won last time), Wholestone 15/2 (course form) & Penhill 16/1 (form looks solid).
When I saw this horse win a race at Ascot on Victoria Cup day 2 years ago, I remember thinking he could run well at a festival – but I was thinking Glorious Goodwood! Still like I said he brought solid form into this and was overpriced.
And the fourth has come from miles back after being hampered by The Worlds End fall!!
Unlucky Raymo…and ironic. Being hampered by TWE cost CB at least 5 lengths and TWE would have gone very close as was travelling well when falling and had about 10 in hand of CB through a line with No Hassle Hoff. Yet again Heskin made up ground quicker than necessary which may have contributed to horse and jockey not being in harmony re take off stride. Tom George is doing so well that he may need a better experienced jockey going forward and I believe the arrangement with Heskin was just for this season.
