SUMMARY

Stiff- WNW Wind = Slight Head BS, helpful on the Bend, Slight Tailwind in HS. === Pre Race === Fast Enough another breeze buy for Godolphin by sire Kodiac. In the gather looks a medium sire type with some body length. Above medium build and some scope but looking a mostly set and ready type. Uses the range he has in the breeze and shows an above average action speed. Holds head a bit awkwardly and action a bit high in front. Looks like a faster breeze with the horse never quite in full control. Doesn't seem to change lead. Drawn 2 here and would expect the horse to want to get on with it and how will jk Doyle ride him? Looks ok for 80 with size & range. Time Warp the first runner of the season for trainer Prescott and in the middle of the range of his start dates. Will typically start with a batch of competitive 2yos with the later batches mostly 3yo handicap set-ups. Early debuts can win if better class and a natural type. 1st runner in 2 of last 4 seasons have won FTO with one Group class and the other a fast, nippy 5f 2yo. 2014 a poor year with 1 winner and a late start to debuts and a thin first batch. In retrospect that late start etc probably reflecting he only had one competitive 2yo. TW noted as a "big & tall horse for 6-7f in July". In the context of the early start and the trainer's 'batching' MO seems a positive for TW being a solid Open Maiden level 2yo at least. === Post Race === Just an Average Pace andnot a strong time. Hint of the rail being dead on the night. But, hard to read the win for Lucymai as other than a better, bigger filly overcoming a bump and running wide to run down some 70s kit? [June 18th] Time Warp above average promising and as the first runner for Prescott in 215 he must be a competitive 2yo type and not a 3yo set-up. Mostly clueless and a slow break then some rolling around on the bend left him off the back of the group and being driven along to chase later on the bend. Plus marks for TW for extending that early effort to still be closing on the leaders into the last 0.5f before stalling late. Other plus marks for racing head down and looking a trier and a solid size and build to think he is the uppr side of 75. One point to ponder is how Prescott knows which 2yos to run in the first batch when they have presumably learnt very little in the prep training. Does he just do it on how easily they do basic drills? Also, has TW done some more formal comparison work since? Stays at 6f STO which is a minor niggle. He looked a stayer here rather than making ground immediately. On the plus side the ST race is an auction event and not an Open Maiden. TW look a better type relatively in PRev as joint topweight in the race? [July 3rd] Taqwaa mostly promising overall. Taller type and the one niggle he is a bot light framed. Would like to see him looked to have filled out and strengthened before STO run over 7f. Slow start then shuffled back before the bend. The got free running and bumped forward and pulled to progress 2 wide on the bend (usually deadly). Given that a positive for the Extended effort he made in the HS to challenge and still be making places late on to the prominent racers. Othe niggle would be about the strength of this form. Other than the first 2 home and the green TW the other 3 in the first 6 amount to real 75ers?
