S by Race Time with 21mm of rain by late pm. This Rce 1 and Going changed to Heavy after the 4th race. GSG from GGS on Decs by Early AM but Rain forecast to persist for the whole day. Why is jk Crowley riding Dubawi Diamond rather than Grand Canyon? Check on recent records show Beckett hasn't used Crowley in August & using de Sousa rides GC) a lot. [Notable Sensitivity to Initial Conditions..] ... Like Track and Pace Biases. Paddy's Motorbike with an OR70 but Taller in the field if Narrow & Lacking Build. But allowed a comfortable lead and racing Stands Side attended by Blues Dancer who started fading and hanging early. When PM was stealing 3L+ before Halfway with a minor pace indrease you wonder what the jks in the Centre Group thought, if anything. With,a presumably very fit, PM not stopping trying to make ground on the Soft Going hard and centre Group incl some with more bulk than CM but none bigger types IC. Winning with horses front running down the Stands' Rail a historical method Evans used to use with sprinters on fast ground at CHEP. A variation here with a longer distance & slow going. |
