Sub Lieutenant 40/1 Neptune

Been looking at the race for a while thinking there has to be a pricer out there, the new fav is a joke winner of a poor maiden which tells u the nature of the market this year.

Sub Lieutenant wasnt up to much in bumpers but has shown plenty of promise in two runs over hurdles, an easy winner at Fairyhouse over 2m2, he didnt beat much and his jumping wasnt great at times but he was impressive nonetheless, clearly left his bumper form well behind. Thrown into a Grade 1 on his second run and sent off half the price of connections subsequent Grade 1 winner Mckinley. The race fell apart and was a complete throw out of a Grade 1, no gallop at all and the winner had too much speed given a good ride. Sub Lieutenant was outpaced but to his credit stayed on really well to finish ahead of Gollantilla after looking booked for last. He is crying out for further and provided a proper Grade 1 gallop at 2m2 tomorrow I think you will see a different horse, and a new fav for the Neptune.
