November 2, 2010 at 19:40 #325967Ryan Moore now rides Paco Boy as Hughes opts to stay in UK for Flat championship
November 2, 2010 at 21:45 #325988The form of the American horse Sidney’s Candy looks very impressive.
He broke the track record in a Group 2 at Del Mar in his last race, his first on turf, winning unchallenged by 5 1/2 lengths, having raced keenly from the front.
Google him and ‘Del Mar’. There’s a YouTube video of the race. He didn’t beat the record by much, but he couldn’t have been all out at the finish – without any competition. Look how far ahead he is a little earlier.
He also broke the 5f track record there on the polytrack by a similar distance, as a maiden 2-year old, ridden just hands and heels.

Is that a racehorse or what!
November 2, 2010 at 23:12 #326012Paco Boy has a great draw in 6. Goldikova not a good one. I really hope Paco can win this and do believe he could well do this time. He’s just a favourite of mine too! I know there are others in the mix

She was drawn 11 last year and still got away with it, this year should be no different. Goldi is somewhat of a nemesis for Paco, both are fine horses but Goldi is slightly better and that’s what makes her superior to him.
It is said this year’s course will give Goldi hard time considering her draw but I think she can pull through anyway.

Holy god i am very impressed,1 of the clips there he’s not even been half ridden out to the line and broke a track record!I was looking at going big on Goldi but think ill b having a smaller bet on her and a few quid e/w on Sidneys candy!
November 5, 2010 at 02:19 #326286Yeah cheers Grimes.
He was flagged up on ATRs preview this evening and I’m becoming a believer. Steve Millar spoke about the pace angle and in america as we know its good to have your ass covered. Tight inner turf course with a 2f straight…he could be impossible to catch with potentially no pressure on the lead. Even if there was, would they catch him?
1pt saver on Sidneys @ 12/1.
November 6, 2010 at 17:45 #326573Much like Zenyatta, would love to see Goldi do it. I think she will.
Gio Ponti is a massive danger and Proviso will be flying late.
1 Goldikova
2 Gio Ponti
3 ProvisoNovember 6, 2010 at 20:11 #326589Proviso the danger for me, pretty happy with those 2. But Sidney’s Candy is a bit like Presious Passion, he might bolt in.

I feel great, my hairs are on end, I can’t describe it. (I’m welling up).
November 6, 2010 at 20:45 #326605As I sit back down and regain my composure…all I can say is THAT WAS SENSATIONAL
November 6, 2010 at 20:46 #326606Outstanding.
What on earth was Moore up to on Paco? Worst ride the horse has got in all its starts.
November 6, 2010 at 20:48 #326607What a magnificent mare, unbelievable. Check out Dettori looking at he go by when she whooshed past Delegator.

November 6, 2010 at 20:50 #326610I need to see the race again to see what Moore was up to, but the short straight really killed Paco Boy’s chances. Looks like in the straight he went for an inside run at first before shifting him out, might have cost him a length or more.
That’s incredible seeing Goldikova’s groom cheering her on!
