canford cliffs 2000 G

After the greenham will either be favourite for the 2000 or the July Cup.

Why's that Plat?

I'm with plat on this won B-)

Im not with Plat on this wun :-)

What do you guys know? :) Drifted to 8 now? Should I lay 8 Stake?

I've already laid Canford Cliffs for the Guineas (some months ago). I'm now waiting for him to win the Greenham impressively before laying him again (at shorter prices) for the Guineas. Top class 6-7f colt, may stay a mile in Group 2/3 company later on, but not in the Guineas.

Thanks James

james p, you and me slight different opinions here, ive layed as well, i dont think that hell even win greenham

c2 - just me own work, no shady biznezz ;)

place lay him imo

july cup horse. got a very low dosage index for a guineas winner.

Could do what Art Conn did last year.

he won at royal ascot at two,one winner out of the last forty something years has won the 2000,that was Henry the Nav.and Hannon aint O'Brien.
Attraction the only R.Ascot 2-y-old winner to win the 1000 since1971,
last Derby winning 2-y-old R.Ascot winner?,Mill Reef.!!!,i certainly wouldnt be hopeful!! LOL anyway.

The sprint division is so poor at the moment that Canford Cliffs could probably mop up the top sprint races much in the same way Oasis Dream did.

Talk Sport Radio , this morning Alan Brazil said he had spoke to R.Hannon junior yesterday and asked about CC ( as Brazil has 16-1 ) was told he did a brilliant piece of work this morning , but is showing so much speed we are not sure he will stay 1 mile. Shock, Horror !

xtension hoses up :)

pipedreamer, just out of curiosity didnt generous win at r ascot ,

I thought he did Elis.

wasn't he second in the 1990 Coventry?

If Generous did that he was a bit different as he was bred to stay 12 furlongs well and of course did just that, an underestimated Derby winner imo - beat the French Derby winner very well in Ireland after his Epsom romp and the King George. He was a brilliiant middle distance horse at his best. Shame he ran below form in the Arc.

I reckon Dr Devious ran placed in the Coventry but somethin in back of mind says Generous won tho dont know whether it was coventry or Chesham.

Racing as a two year old, Generous won three races and finished second in the Coventry Stakes at Ascot.

apologies memory not what it was.

ROGib, was very unlucky in the Coventry at RA.

Why was that then Push?The one colt unlucky in that Coventry was Firebreak 2nd because he jumped the road.

^^^ he was beaten about a neck by Landseer.

Turtle Island won the Norfolk went on to win the Irish 2000G.
Niche won the Norfolk for Hannon went on to finish 2nd in the 1000G.
Landseer won the Coventry and was only just beaten in the French 2000G.

No Push Landseer WON the French 2000!

Thought he did, it was the French trial for the Guineas in which he finished 3rd.

Chief Singer won the Coventry and finished 2nd in one of the best 2000 Gns of all time.

didnt henrythenav win the coventry?

He did , but he had also won over 7f FTO, so staying 1 mile was less of an issue.

Seyedatti won at the lesser Heath meeting o n the Sat,point being ,its a bit of an ask.

Push his win FTO was totally irrelevant as to staying a mile tho as he was in a totally different class to the opposition.
Henry would have won in a canter from 5 f to any distance you like that day.
Therefore if the FTO race had only been 5f you would have had a doubt About him getting the mile?

Still had plenty of stamina in his pedigree, unlike CC.
