    A clutch my usual ew outsiders
    Be Happy- not sure about Camelots on the ground but should get the trip no bother at least.
    Red Riding Hood- bonkers (I don’t think blinkered horses win Classics) but should like the ground and has some talent. Could be a Dawn Approach style horror show but at least should be entertaining. Got to love a headbanger.
    Maman Joon- trip and ground hopefully suit. Trainer loves her (yes I know he loves them all)

    Loving the confidence, Mike.

    On times so far, I’d say there’s no jar in the ground – 0.2s and 0.27s per furlong slow respectively.

    Tongue in cheek to a degree as she has to go and do it. :o)

    Even Tom Segal pricewise says she’ll win and he usually takes these shorties on.

    Looks like they broke standard by over a second just now – she’s going to have to be as effective on a quicker surface.

    Bet365 offering 6/4 Savethelastdance on their site, but kept me to £40.
    Seems generous.

    The quick ground has done for the jolly and made it for the winner – and she’s proper decent too!

    I think she could be quite good – got stuck out a bit wide early on and had to go to the back and she didn’t appear to handle the track too well but she has speed and I think she might actually be better at 10F.

    Savethelastdance too slow

    Wonder if they’d target her at the leger

    Soul sister will be better over 1m2f imo

    Shame about running lion

    I can understand the frustration but it wasn’t a good look Oisin Murphy losing his cool like that, the animal rights folk will have a field day over his lack of concern for how the filly was after her ordeal in the stalls.

    On that ground I think the favourite needs further as she was being niggled quite a long way out – on this ground she could be a St Leger type.

    The time was slow compared to the Coronation apparently so the winner’s speed came in handy.

    wd winners.
