Canford Cliffs & Steinbeck

[Inquisitor]

Have some double money riding over to Steinbeck from the Sariska win, but may have to cover with Canford Cliffs now.

I see he is entered up after all….apologies if I put anyone off.

Looks like your original assesment may be right after all after Aidan O’briens comments today "no better than 50-50 that he will run at Ascot"

Phew, I was surprised to see him entered to be honest.

IMO something wrong with owners and trainers who’ve already run a good and speedy 2yo 3 times by mid-May.

I don’t see anything wrong at all. A few years back, I remember a very fast 2 Y O called Horage who won something like 9 races in a row … the good ol’ days

Well remembered; Horage also went on to win the St James’ Palace Stakes as a 3yo.

I was a teenager then. I’d backed him and his SP was 18-1 I think. He slipped the field some way from home and stole something like a 3 length lead. The hot favourite Tolomeo came with a good rattle but failed by a head to catch him.

Nice horse Horage

I was eleven, and already a veteran!
