    Tough one to call. The Gimcrack can be viewed that way Ian or the view could be Royal Scotsman was well beaten and he was ahead of Blackbeard and Persian Force at Ascot. I know Blackbeard has progressed but Marshman has plenty of scope to do so.
    I was hoping the market wouldn’t see it that way and that Marshman would be readily available at 4/1. Alas, he is the current fav around 2’s so I’ll keep an eye on things and hope for a drift.

    Race to watch for me.

    The Gimcrack form might be very good, but I don’t think the Richmond winner ran to form in it tbh.

    “Good point FF
    Potential for Marshman and Blackbeard to cut each others throats too”

    Never but a dream is also a nutjob front runner so they could go a proper gallop

    Mischief magic could be the one to benefit, I’m just not sure he’s up to this class

    I’d have been very confident in his stablemate noble style powering home to pick these up

    One to mull over

    Marshman doesn’t have to lead i don’t think. EW double with Trillium for a bit of interest.

    Marshman for me , potentially very smart for a yard that’s had a great year

    Blackbeard does a passable impression of an absolute nutcase down at the start, but in the actual race he settled better than anything and for me that’s his best performance yet.

    Really good 2yo that.

    Wd winners. Won easy. Marshman, like the Hannon filly race before, didn’t relax.

    All that, and still only the second best two year old colt in the stable.

    Hope so, Gladders.

    It’s that whole Arkle/Flyingbolt thing.

    Only 2yos.

    On the Flat.

    In 2022.

    Blackbeard wins Group 1 worth £156,000 to winner.

    Galeron wins sales race worth €1.2 million.

    If you were an owner, which would you rather win?

    Blackbeard wouldn’t stay a mile so wouldn’t have won the sales race

    Lezoo clocked the quicker time – not that such things should be taken literally.
