Racing Summary
DATE PROFILE/COMMENTS
March 26th: Entered for - 
Kempton 5f 
Maiden - (D2)
  • Also declared for the Musselburgh 5f race on March 27th
  • Better than basement price for DOC sales.
  • By a First Season Sire trained by D. Loder in (Fr) and made early debut and won over 5.5f. B2yoR rated 8 of his yearlings at sales and these were mostly moderate. 
  • Dam was a 5f winner at a low level and has produced one poor runner from three previous foals.
  • Reviewed at the sales and was small but with solid build and a neat, little sprinter type. Rated 64 and seen as probably being competitive in early races rating in the 60s.
  • Trainer gets 2yos ready and professional on debut and better ones can win. Normally enters runners in suitable races.
  • Trainer had two runners in first 2yo race but both moderate types and both faded after making and pressing the pace. Neither was fully fit on debut.
  • In summary ought to be a competitive little sprinter at 60+ level in early races but ought to be better runners in these days. Profile [57]
  • March 27th: 
    Entered for 
    Musselburgh 
    5f Maiden
  • Trainer has two entries for race. This one also one of three entries for Kempton on March 26th.
  • Profile [57]
  • March 27th: 
    Entered for 
    Musselburgh 
    5f Maiden - 
    POST RACE
  • Steady around 8/1. 
  • He was close enough and had a clear run but finished the wrong side of the three length  'garbage gap' in a volunteer fourth. 
  • Another poor debut run by the trainer at this course and more notably another uncompetitive run by his 2yos this season. 
  • Is he not getting them as ready on debut as he used to or is he saving his better 2yos (if he has them) for something else, like Doncaster? Estimate [47]
  • April 2nd: Declared 
    for Doncaster Auction
  • Trainer has regularly used this race for minor (seller/claimer and/or AW winners). Receives 1lb from the topweight colt.
  • Trainer has had very poor start to the season with no runners competitive and STO runs showing no worthwhile improvement. Profile [50]
  • April 2nd: Doncaster
    Post Race
  • had put in a dull run on debut in line with his trainer's runners so far in the season. This was the first sign of a better run by one of his runners at 4/1 2nd favourite. Estimate [62]
  • April 23rd: Lingfield 
    5f Conditions
  • Finished well behind Wovoka on debut who is also in the race. The form of his win at Doncaster is moderate. Similar run here.  Profile [64]
  • May 4th: Chester
    5f Conditions
  • Showed improved form at Lingfield and keeping on at the end of the race after getting outpaced by the winner early in the straight.  Estimate [70]
  • The trainer usually chooses his best 2yo for this race. He has had a poor year and the only alternative would have been Lord Jack Flash who ran at Thirsk 4 days before. Would not expect further improvement and meets Danjet on 1lb worse terms and she beat him at Lingfield. Profile [70 + 3 = 73]
  • May 4th: Chester
    Post Race
  • 16/1 7th favourite. Appears to have developed to be his trainer's best 2yo after probably being second ranked in early season. He is smallish and compact but has muscled up well in into speedy little sprinter although limited by his range. 
  • Broke 3rd from stall 6 and ran hard in the first furlong to establish a half length lead 1 off he rail. His jockey then settled him as the pacemaker until quickened the race from halfway and cut across Danjet to the rail 1.5 furlong out. Gained a little over the other runners by this effort but the first two travelled well behind and quickened away from him. Did best of the pacemakers to keep on for 3rd. Ran to expectations and probably has limited scope to develop that rating. Estimate [72]
  • May 22nd: Brighton
    6f Novice
  • A slight surprise he steps up to 6f even though on a faster track. Showed good pacemaking at Chester LTO but easily outpaced by the better types. Before that had been keeping on in a 5f AW race. Ought to stay 5f and likely to press the pace and get a lead. Likely to be vulnerable to better types on the uphill section here.
  • Carries topweight and gives up to 6lb to the other colts. He has the usual stable 5lb apprentice to partly offset that penalty.  Profile [72]
