Workforce 2000 Guineas

Like that Bjork song!!!

Had a setback a couple weeks ago apparently, hence his absence from the Craven this week.

Thanks never read that anywhere,thought something was possibly wrong,layed off some at 14s earlier in week,still drifting was on at 22s.Had saver on Pimpernel at 21.8 so should have 1 runner with chance?

Workforce is on the drift on Betfair, but SJ decide to cut him a point to 9-1 today.

sickness in the stable, I think

^ I think a few scoped badly a few weeks ago, and he was obviously one of them.

agree with sir his horses are running very poorly

He had a winner yesterday. How does that equate with "his horses are running poorly" ?

Horse went to newmarket yesterday for the experience.

Did he gallop yesterday geoff?

dont think so .Was repoted on RUK went for "Paddock" experience.

Galloped last Saturday, according to the WEEKENDER ,

he is 100% A okay and has had NO interuptions in his prep, drift probably due to EP winning the Craven well on Thursday and the fact he isn't having a prep run.

How do you know that about Workforce please ?

i personally don't think he'll run in the guineas. stoute will see how strong a guineas it is, say to teddy that he's a lovely prospect, not much to be gained from running him in such a strong guineas, given his lack of experience he'd be seriously up against it to win it, better to aim him at dante & derby. just my opinion but sure we'll see what happens

You may indeed be dead right!

Been talking to Teddy have we Prima Donna ?

I do know him very well ;-)

The Racing Post website feature with Tony Elves ( work watcher ) says if there is one horse in Newmarket that could give St Nicholas Abbey a run for his money it would be Workforce, that feature only came out yesterday, you would think he should know what is going on.

i'd be surprised if sir michael was telling tony elves his plans

That may be his opinion,that may not be M R Stoute's though,but we all shall see .

No but he should know how well he is working.

He does,

Golan all over again

is that what you think?

I dont beleive the Guineas looks that strong this year, they may as well use it as a prep for Workforce if nothing else, Fencing Master and Awzaan look weak on Betfair today.

If the ground proves a little fast for SNA, I's also be interested in Ballydoyle's stats FTO in April/May as I feel he is beatable,

Elusive Pimpernel did look good in the Craven but in a bigger field I could see him struggling when better horses than those that ran on Thursday do quicken.

Major stamina doubts about Canford and Arcano, and we may not really find out much more today.

Of those unexposed runners Workforce looks to most interesting.

Push I agree with you as for Fencing Master he will be running but you should be able to guess why!

Yes , well that is reflected in the price. I read your comments with interest about Workforces participation in the race ( PD ) I said you are a jinx, or more likely i am just no good at finding winners.

Workforce entered in two races at Sandown next friday.

Chabal is entered for those 2 races also.

What are peoples opinions on Workforce to run at Sandown and in the 2000 Guineas?

Well if he ran over 1m2f surely there's no chance of him going for the Guineas

What about the conditions stakes over 1m though? Backed him a long time ago and getting a bit worried now about getting a run....

Not like Stoute to run one so close to the Guineas

Yeah would only be a week so you'd have to be worried, does seem strange they're wobbling on the race, maybe he's just a little backward still.

You may be correct ben10 ;-)

A couple of words from trainer or connections wouldn't have went a miss.

Will not run according to RUK

gutted.

They knew good while back bit of the Bolgers,but wont be much made of it as top trainer? Like Henderson ? get away with too much ?? **!!!

Sorry about last word but is true!!

** racing manager does nothing for the so called sport Sir Fickin Teddy ** racing for exchange!

Actually its Lord Teddy,not that changes anything!
