To me, it’s not about being a favourite backer or not, the’s nothing wrong in looking for value. The Lockinge result sums it up perfectly Audience was suppose to be a pace maker to Inspiral, a thing in which they would have done in training loads of time. The fact nothing took on, or good enough to challenge, Audience says it all. Is Audience underestimated, probably, but as the season develops we will quickly forget about this run.
I think the wet winter has set back the top level horses in their fitness.

HONOURABLE MENTIONS
This section was designed to give acknowledgement to those that was unlucky with their particular choices, although they might still scored with others.
UNPLACED SELECTION
RAYMO61 had the unlucky Streets Of Gold.AS A RESERVE
A double whammy for EUROALIEN with both THE WIZARD OF EYE and HICKORY as his reserve selections.
Also with HICKORY as their reserve was LANDAFAR, JOHN GOOCH and STEVE75. QUELLE FARCE and YAHOO both had the runner up RAMAZAN.FOR THE WIN
Unlucky with their win choice was VENTURE TO COGNAC who went for ROPEY GUEST.
HICKORY was the choice of GREENASGRASS, DFWARD and YAHOO.
LANDAFAR, ISINGLASS and ROBNORTH all had the hardest luck with the runner up RAMAZAN.I think next year’s race is to be held on April 5th, a week earlier than this year.

Saturday June 22nd is Royal Ascot so I think the Workingham Stakes would be the main race there.
Won’t be available so no substitute race, and unavailable for July 20th (maybe longer) been called up for public service.
