Racing Summary

DATE	PROFILE/COMMENTS
29 Apr	The difference between the outlook for this race and the Ripon/Windsor affairs extends further because there are a range of horses on debut who come from serious trainers and at least 2 ought to be up cruising past Smalljohn as he wilts into the final furlong. Peter Winkworth has an NH background and started running a few 2yos back in 2004 when he had a 20/1 debut winner with his second juvenile runner and that one went on to place in the Windsor Castle. The quality has been variable in the years since then but the debut readiness has usually been there. Debut winners at 20/1 in 2006 and 40/1 last year have got him into the 'Long Shot' P&L tracking for 2008. He's had 11 other placed debuts 2005-7, mostly at longer odds, including a 66/1 third in this race behind Hannon's Green Pride in 2005. His first 2yo runner ran respectably in 6th at Windsor yesterday and Hatchet Man has a stronger profile and you presume is close to his best early 2yo. He cost 32,000gns and his dam was well related although she hasn't done much as stud to date. He's by new sire Needwood Blade who we are still learning about and didn't make any impact at 2yo although ne proved a Group class 5f winner as an older horse. Anyway, a solid profile and a lively outsider if at typical odds for the trainer despite his wide draw.
