April 15th: Thirsk
Fillies' Novice |
Made low price at the Goffs sales.
Sire has mixed pedigree but has an acceptable record with 2yos since being
repatriated. Gets winners over a variety of distances but can get odd 5f
winners. Wins usually come from May onwards.
Dam made quite high price at sales for her sire and was a slightly above
average sprint 2yo. She has a disappointing stud record with three runners
that have shown 50s form and sold for similar prices to this one.
Trainer made his name with older sprinters and has only a few 2yos each
season. The debuts tend to be 10lbs or more below the final rating and
wins tend to be STO and at peak rating.
In summary a pedigree of a 50s rated 5f 2yo who may do a little better
over 6f. Trainer's debuts are normally development runs towards a STO peak.
Unusual for him to make a debut in a better race but this is his local
track and this the only race available for his filly (unless he wanted
to run her in the claimer tomorrow). Profile [51]

16/1 and never in the race at Thirsk on soft ground and outpaced throughout.
Estimate

Would need to improve on better ground to be competitive in this race.

May 9th: Redcar
5f Novice |
Attracted some each-way support at Catterick from 28/1 to 20/1 in a race
with several supported and a drifting second favourite. Looked small but
very fit and a neat, ready little sprinter. Proved that her first run on
soft was below her level. Broke ok from wide draw and settled midfield
off a slow early pace and made a little ground to bt just over a length
behind the leader at halfway. Driven up to challenge the leader just after
halfway and duelled with him and just got by as he faded late. Beat a horse
who had shown signs of getting unblanaced and not finishing races off well
in his previous run and did the same. Estimate [53]
Probably ran close to her best rating at Catterick and looked very fit
and lacking some range and any great scope to develop. Has the conditions
to run to s similar level here. Penalised 4lb for her win and receives
only 1lb from the newcomer colts. Profile [56 + 1 =57]
