    LAKE FORREST 3/1

    Missed the opening 5/1 on him at Power but a return to 7f and weather looks fine to.
    Formal a danger but should still have enough to beat her

    Not an AP player but when saw the 5s was thinking if he shows up that’s a great price. This could be like The John Of Gaunt will there be a tear up to get to the front in first furlong?

    No surprise if he does win but 11 days is a very quick turnaround at this level and that Queen Anne was a bit of a strange one.
    I gave Formal some money at 4/1 last night (can get 5’s now) based purely on her form being boosted by Saqqara Sands t’other day.
    Quick ground? I think she has a versatile look to her.

    There’s one I’ve spotted at York. Quinault is being hung out with the washing
    at 40/1 with a couple of firms. He ran up a 6 timer back in 2023, including a
    £50,000 Heritage Handicap at Newmarket. He won a £25,000 Listed race at Newmarket
    last August. Followed that in a listed race at York in a good time considering the
    going. In October he’s 3rd in a Group 2 over 7f after missing the kick. Wasn’t beaten
    far in a Group 3 in September at Chantilly, where you probably needed flippers.

    He was beaten less than 2L in a £182,000 Group 3 sprint at Al Uqda (QA). Beaten into
    6th, after again missing the kick in a £696,000 sprint at Medan. The only poor race I
    reckon he had was last time out over 7F at Haydock in the John Gault although he did
    lead to around 1f from home.

    Will he win the race, probably not but with 8 runners is there a chance he will be placed. At
    40/1 I’m happy to take that chance.

    it was insulting he was 40/1.

    Thanks Darren and Nick. Sorry about doing your 2nd Nick but I
    just couldn’t see mine as a 40/1 shot. It’s been a good day.
