Stiff Southerly Wind = Half Headwind from Left BS, unhelpful onthe Bend, Half Tailwind from Right HS. Prince Frank touring 'the Halls' one last time. and working through his repertoire of poor rides to add to the pile to show to anyone out there still believing he is a genius. What would possess anyone to make Life Less Ordinary a 'Steamer' during the day and into favourite on course? With a trainer who doesn't get many strong debuts and ridden by someone who would be close to the bottom of any list of jockeys you would want to get a FTO 2yo home in front. Spencer putting 1lb ow up and then ensuring a slow break and LLO off the back before they had got to the CH turn. LLO looking a reasonable size for €5k retainee but a slow galloper and too green to get involved here. Frank ensuring he didn't get involved by not trying to make ground back in the slower paced sections of the race. Grisly. |
