York Stakes 2025

[Wilts]

Prob going to be ground dependent for Saturday but

Certain Lad 22s, win only (boosted)

[Nathan Hughes]

Green Impact looks a fair price to me 9/1
to be fair you could make a case for all of them
weight for age swayed me towards the 3 y/o’s and his price over Stanhope Gardens pushed me into him

Considering the bare form Almaqam brings into the race I thought 10/11 was fair/decent. Been waiting for some ground without firm in the title, I expect that’ll be the case tomorrow. For the ride Shoemark shoehorned, should show sherious ride.

Bay City Roller 11-1.

The more I know the less I understand.

[Kris]

I’ve taken 40-1 ew on Certain Lad

[Mike007]

Almaqam for me.

[Chivers1987]

I’ll be honest. I don’t get it.

[Mike007]

Alaqam ‘all talk no trousers’ ;o)

Oh dear that didn’t go to plan – writing was on the wall a fair way out as well, need to hope he was badly in need of the run, being his first since May and don’t forget that the winner was a long way behind Ombudsman at Royal Ascot last time out as well.

Is it possible to think that maybe the Sandown win against Ombudsman flattered him a great deal as Almaqam had already had a previous run whereas Ombudsman was making his seasonal debut?

[LD73]

Having looked back at his form prior to Sandown it was nothing to indicate he was anything more than a horse that was maybe somewhere between G2 and G3 level anyway.

[Chivers1987]

Well there’s always an abundance of actual reasonings. Almaqam beat Royal Champion on seasonal debut although RC hadn’t run for just over 2 months.
Also take in the fact that Almaqam really enjoys Sandown. Not quite the same at York first time here.
