SUMMARY
G in early am from GGS on Decs.

Stalls Centre.



=== Pre Race ===

Breeze Video for Cautious Optimism interesting. CO not the typical smaller medium neat and ready Showcasing type. Leggier, gawkier neck, perhaps a bit more range but less neat and a bit lightly made in places. Not improved by seeing him gallop. Upright front, high and wide action forelegs. Knee action and pound making him look an awkward mover and with a slower cadence all looking like it is hard work and slow. 34k seems to be the hope he will be a usable longer term galloper.

Breeze Video for Blushed starts with the long shot and only 1.5f of the breeze left to go. Blushed typical for a McCabe Breeze buy, Smaller medium and a bit short but deep bodied and solidly made. Rolls along straight and cadence drops to average by 1f to go. Looks usable 70s.

=== Post Race ===



Odd angle at the finish at the course and Happy Call never appearing to be headed but Lilbourne Prince grinding on to be a relatively clear winner. Caught out the SLife CIR writer who says HC "just held on".

Slowish time with the following 5f nursery run in under 59 secs. Presume the Pace was too strong(?) with big fades from Jinko's Approval & St Georges Cross who came intot he race with OR70 & 72 and while limited in different ways should set a better relative standard. SGC another poor one for owner Fretwell who is now into his 3rd poor year. SGC ridden as if having some negative attitude later in the race. Strong pace would account for how bigger IC, gallopy Cautious Optimism got to 3rd? Or does he gallop at an ok speed, if in an ugly manner. Medburn Dream contesting the 'ugly galloping style' rosette for the race.
