    Yes!

    And from a string of no more than a mere couple of hundred all of who race every week from the Brocklesby to November Handicap Day!

    Genius, sheer genius!

    Not keen on sprints full stop and especially betting against Aussie runners who look like they’ve spent the last year in boots the chemists…. Another bulked up beast???

    But occasionally I do like a clash animal dropping back (remember adjal?) and sacred looks interesting doesn’t she

    She does Clive.
    I love her ability to travel at pace
    She beat Saffron Beach over 7f last year which doesn’t look too shabby now after what we saw from SB earlier in the week

    Campanelle strikes me as the one who’s gonna be rock-hard to crack. Such an imposing presence too. Therefore, she’s my confident selection.

    Backed:
    Sacred 10.5/1
    Creative Force 17/1
    Minzaal 18.5/1

    Added Dragon Symbol @ 49/1.

    Drawn higher than my other three in 19. On their best Official Ratings only has a little over a length to make up on the favourite Home Affairs. Changed stables this year from Archie Watson to Roger Varian and has been a bit disappointing. However, has possibly taken a while to know the horse… And overall I’d say Varian is the better trainer so might even be able to get a little more out of the horse. And / or Dragon Symbol improved at this stage of the season last year; “beating” Campanelle in the Commonwealth Cup (before demoted). That was on heavy ground but went on to show just as good if not better form next time, 1 1/4 lengths second to Starman in the July Cup on Good-firm. Indeed, Ascot on heavy last year imo stretched his stamina. Anyway,@ 49/1 is imo worth backing to find out.

    All bets each way.

    Was going to sit this out, but having followed Gustavus Weston for the last couple of years, just can’t leave him without a bet.

    Completely up against it on recent form, and surprisingly runs here after a average run a couple of weeks back, but he’s stepping up to 6f here, where he’s marginally better. Doesn’t appear particularly ground dependent, and not the worst draw, so I’ll take a chance.

    Now had a saver (win bet) @ 33/1 A Case Of You, just in case the rail is the place to be.

    Have now laid a bit of my Creative Force And Minzaal bets back (possibly drawn wrong side) and backed A Case For You 33/1 ew (straight up the stand rail).

    Home Affairs
    May well be good enough here if back to form.
    Has beaten his stablemate an impressive winner here.
    Grenadier guards
    The Frankel from Japan
    Dragon Symbol
    Has not won since having race taken away from him here. A big price.

    possibly a level playing field.
