SUMMARY

=== Pre Race ===

Holiday Henry retained cheaply at the Breeze Sales. Breeze Video seems to explain that in some ways but looking a usable size. In the Video he looks like an inexperienced horse, who is probably a one-paced stayer, trying to look like a '2f Blast' horse when he isn't. In the wrong sale. Looks green but shows a round action in front (Dirt curl?) and a single cadence. When hassled to go faster he runs straight but the Fore/Rear leg timing goes off and he puts some bounds in. He does stay the 2f, but at his own pace. Starting at 8.6f looks right for what he is - an ok sized grinder. If he has developed well he might be ok for 70+ or he might be just plain slow. Never able to find a distance he can compete at before his stamina runs out. Check how competent he looks FTO - everything still look like it is happening too quick for his brain/movement?

=== Post Race ===

Run by Hepplewhite partly helped by an easy lead but pulled the race apart (lowish quality) other than Lord George (won comfortably with jk Queally getting himself boxed in for the second race in a row). Hepplewhite a classic STO Auction Race 'Peak Run' for trainer Eddery and the horse a solid size in this group.

Looking back at Invocation's Breeze Video & FTO run before the race raised issues over whether he is real 70+ quality. No excuse here and Rating Level for Race 630 too high. Theydon Grey won that race comfortably and Invocation took a long time to get to a volunteer 2nd having looked outpaced at times and smaller side of medium in that field.
