| Next it's the filly Grand
Plan who had finished second at the course a few days ago and it's
deja vu, all over again. Another small, underpowered one and mentally young
and not forward in condition. You would think she was running again because
she'll struggle to win. Having seen her the rating given for the Percolator
race she placed in feels too high. She starts as odds-on favourite and
drifts to odds-against unsurprisingly. Travels well enough in the race
behind and even more limited front-runner but can't get past him in the
straight. At the furlong pole she either fades or packs it in 'Shadow Bay'
style for a terrifically limp 4th place. Another 60s kind of thing. When
is Osborne going to show us a better one?
