just want to know people’s thoughts on this? There is the hard luck story of Nahoodh in the English version but i cant get Saoirse Abu out of my thinking the only problem i have is the ground for her will it be to fast?
Looks a poor quality race for a Guineas. Nahoodh ought to win even if reproducing nothing better than her unlucky Newmarket form.
Kitty Matcham for me. O’Brien tends to target the fillies at this one rather than Newmarket and she had no chance held-up of a slow pace there.
With two in to set a strong pace it should be a good test which will suit her perfectly.
She might just prefer the ground a little easier but 7’s is a big price nevertheless.Seems like Godolfin have bought Nahoodh .This is one race where Dermot always seems ready to take on Aidan so it should be a mighty race.
Channon trains his horse like there was no tomorrow. You can be assured of one thing Nahoodh wins nothing lay her till the cows come home and make yourselves a few quid
I can accept that Nahoodh was denied a clear run in the Guineas, but whether that merits 9/4 or 5/2 is another matter. Also, I’m not certain whether Kitty Matcham will finish ahead of Halfway to Heaven, as the latter’s proximity to Zarkava surely deserves respect.
Put Saoirse Abu, Mad About You and Carribean Sunset into the equation and I’m tempted to lay Nahoodh if she gets shorter… the only thing is I’m bloody useless at laying!
Will all of these run on firm ground?
Nahoodh looks plenty short enough at 11/4. Yes on the day in the Guineas at Newmarket she was unlucky, but they didn’t go all that quick there, whereas with the Ballydoyle pacemakers in today, there should be a proper gallop. I fancy Kitty Matcham in this. If it hadn’t been a classic last time, I would have wondered if she was that busy at Newmarket. She certainly wasn’t at all knocked about once it was clear her chance had gone. With that as like a prep for this, I think she’ll be spot on today.
i fancy Saoirse Abu to win as imo has the best form and properly is the best horse, Also ew fancy Savethisdanceforme even being an inconsistant sort this could be a running day.
i have Nahoodh way down on my list
just for interest my ratings for the race are as follows
Saoirse 141
Savethis 133
halfway 130
carribean 126
mad about 123
nahoodh 119
myst 114
evas 114
kitty 08
milton 103
tuscan 99
soinlove 98
queens 90Carribean Sunset recorded a fair timefigure at Leopardstown back in April that puts in her in with a squeak today, narrowly beating Halfway to Heaven who should appreciate the sounder surface. Those 2, at current odds, will do for me.
Excellent Scallywag. Highlighted the 1/2.
That run behind Zarkava kind of stands out a bit obviously now. Isn’t that always the way after the race, it’s staring you in the face.
