SUMMARY

£10k Bonus Race.

GF as it had been 2 days prior. Stalls Far Side rail. Going Stick Reading from 08:00am

Stiff WSW Wind = Mostly Crosswind from the Left, very slight Tailwind.

Fahey in his SLife Blog = "Monkey Bar Flies has been badly programmed this season as he's been beaten by two Royal Ascot winners. He got a bit colty on us so we gelded him and we'll see what happens with him ....... at York. Khelman's a horse we like and he does show a good level at home. If the penny dropped he could run well."

Stalls Far Side, most of field raced Far-Centre strip.

Typical York race with some horses not picking up off a usable pace and extended distances at the finish. How much Pace related and how much firmer going and horses not handling it?

Pundits would have the Quinlan stable down as 'shrewd' so why does Cour Valant start at 33/1? In 212 trainer Quinlan hugely positive about CV. To give a flavour = "... most potential of my 2yos, ..... like him an awful ot, ....would have made 80k if he had gone to the sales.
