| She's A Shaw Thing - a very illuminating immediate
post-race interview with her trainer. He said "Was going to have a good
bet on her but I wasn't sure she would handle the ground or the draw but
they came stands' side so she was in the right place". "I took four
[2yos] to Wolverhampton [Polytrack] last week and she finished last of
them. I think Tom [Mcloughlin who rode here] went to sleep a bit".
"She's not big enough to be a 3yo so we will keep cracking away with
her at 2yo".
The last of the lines in response to a question about whether she would
be kept going like Danjet. That probe also asked whether he would be as
ambitious with her as Danjet (who only ran in Conditions, Listed &
Groups races afterwards at 2yo and not in handicaps). Mr Evans looked a
little surprised by that question and suggesting he didn't think this one
was up to Danjet standard. However, although quite sharp, Mr Evans' normal
wide eyed expression can make him look perpetually surprised.
A, small and ready natural who isn't going to improve much and perhaps
an OR72-74 type. Trainer often gets second win with this sort through persistence.
