SUMMARY

Rails all at widest extent.

PLord unable to settle in lead with Khazium running too freely in FT visor and joining him. Pair pressed on together and started racing each other inside the last 3f. Khazium hanging left by 2f out and getting left. PLord responding better but then hanging left by 1.5f out and not moving fluently. Fading by 0-.5f+ which set the race up to make the closers look quite good. Tine seems solid and CC seemed to win a little comfortably. Check whether he is an OR80+ type which the style of this win made him look.

Channon website Post race = "Captain Cardington didn't surprise anybody in making a woeful debut at Sandown. In glimpses, he's shown limitless flashes of potential at home but has dropped himself right out in his work from time to time to baffle everybody. In the juvenile maiden at Epsom this evening however he was a changed animal for that initial experience. Again he was green and found a little trouble in running, but that was probably the best thing that has happened to him. Having been stopped on the heels of the leaders, he finally cottoned on to what was required and having changed his legs on meeting the rising ground he stormed home"
With Channon quoted as "..now Captain Cardington has decided he's a racehorse. His Sandown debut was horrific but we've had a few do that first time up which can happen from time to time. He's got an awful lot to learn and won in spite of himself this evening but he's talented alright. We'll see what he turns himself into."
