Racing Summary

DATE	PROFILE/COMMENTS
04 Apr	Eoghan O'Neill is a similarly promising and upcoming trainer like Wallace. He is also similar in that he takes care in assessing his 2yos before they run, knows how good they are and tries to pitch them at the right level. Until just before the season started he had the advantage of training the Fretwell horses at that trainer's stables but they parted company in what you would presume were acrimonious circumstances. But, that presumably wont have changed his methods and much of the preparation for the season would already have been done. His Red Cell runs for owners Premspace for whom he had a debut winner at the course in 2007 with the useful Ellmau and a winter AW highlight with Rapidity who won at all four AW tracks in a short period. If he's here and running for this trainer then he's a usable 2yo and should be ready to run well first time as with the Wallace runner. He has to give Hartshead Flyer 3lbs because he cost 4,000gns more at the sales and his pedigree is a little more tuned for 5f early. He's by first season sire Kheleyf who has already managed a winner with the nippy Percolater at Lingfield.
05 Apr	Now, both Michael Bell & Eoghan O'Neill use rugs which are maroon with blue piping, slightly different shades but confusable. What's that narrow, scrawny & ill put together thing behind Hartshead Flyer (smaller than him in any dimension)? Oh it must be the Bell filly Bahamian Babe and a quick 'X' next to her name. The lass leading the horse comes closer and she has a '1' on her numberplate. Strewth, that's the topweighted colt Red Cell? At which point the profile has done it's job in that you can discount Red Cell (we don't bet on 'scrawny', even in races where 'scrawny' might fashion a success through relative fitness). He's presumably out this early because O'Neill knows he'll be struggling to get the win.
