Go Dan Go an NR for a 7f Maiden at AYR on July 14th with 'Not Eaten Up' as the reason. These notes on his Breeze written then = >Breeze Video for Go Dan Go interesting for a number of reasons but firstly because it is THE WORST Breeze seen in the Videos so far. GDG looks very raw physically but seems an ok size and a deep bodied one of his sire. Gawky neck and a notable knee action in front make him look worse. In the breeze he never does the same thing twice in any of the strides he does. Also does a lot of hanging, jinking, fly jumping. Held always, head well to the right & Jumps RH at one point and it would make you wonder whether he cannot see out of one eye or just having some sort of brain spasm. If it can be done wrong GDG does it. Low retained price though seems to reflect his apparent untrainability rather then his bulk. One interesting point to note is he runs down the Far Rail and this is a huge improvement to the Stands Rail because you can see the horse fully.

Fortuna Glas sold for just £30,000 at the Goffs Breeze Sale at KTNA moved to the evening before RASCT started. This seemed to get a lot of bidders over-excited and some silly prices paid. 8 of the breezers fetching £100,00+ with the highest £600,000. Which means £30k sounds like 'loose change' on the day. A look at the Breeze Video having written the preceding seemed to explain the Low Price completely. FG looking an ol height of a bit narrow and gawky in front. Also a bit leggy. If you saw him standing still you could perhaps convince yourself he had a 'frame to grow into'. In motion he looks dreadful. Starts by looking very leggy and the legs not that well controlled. Added to this a very high action in front. Initially you would imagine this will settle down a bit and he well get into a rhythm of some sort. But it gets worse and watching his is like watching the front & back halves of different horses. They aren't timed at all and he seems to be part bounding and part Who Knows What. Ends up going very slowly in the last 0.5f showing a round action in front now. Rider vaguely pushing at the end but having trouble finding any rhythm to push to. Never mind, i'm sure it will ride up with wear. Interested, almost excited, to see what he looks like on FTO on a donhill/uphil blast. Better Uphill you would suspect.

Hard N Sharp sold at the same sale as Fortuna Glas (see notes on prices made above). HNS somehow managed to raise only £25,000 & £5,00 less than Fortuna Glas (who did a dreadful Breeze). HNS looks at least medium size and okish bulk. Perhaps a bit narrow but why only £25k? Seems to do a straight breeze but a very slow one. Seems very straight leeged and showing very little range and effectively scuttling along but with a slowing turnover. Also gives the impression his hindlegs are shorter and not giving much forward drive. Seems to recover them only a little under his body. Completing a Hat-Trick of Terrible Breezers making their debuts in this race. Can't Wait.
