LOL, My dream draw, Elusive on the rail and Canford drawn low
|
|
By:
Cheers
see Canford got low draw which may be vital if he is to have any chance |
|
By:
My nightmare draw, I have laid SNA massively and all the horses I have backed to beat him over the winter were Elusive, Awzaan and Fencing Master all drawn low, as well as Canford. SNA backers must be delighted.:(
|
|
By:
& also not ruin any others chance.
St Nic got his pacemakers(if they choose that optio) drawn high with him |
|
By:
alls in centre of course.
|
|
By:
stalls.3
|
|
By:
If they gradually drift over to the near rail which is often the case then I can see Elusive Pimpernel having major traffic problems - Six Perfections all over again imo :(
|
|
By:
19 runners? could split into two groups which is a nightmare for punters
|
|
By:
I'd imagine they'll come up the middle as long as the ground is similar on both sides. The draw will prove irrelevant.
|
|
By:
so what draw is best?
|

By:
rowl 29 Apr 14:48
so what draw is best? No point asking - who knows what the exact state of the ground is going to be like on saturday,or indeed how the pace will work out ?. |
|
By:
with that amount of runners im pretty sure that a few will end up on a rail
|
|
By:
One of which will no doubt be Canford Cliffs!
|
|
By:
This could come down to where Michael Hills fancies going to as he's going to lead near side and what Inlers connections decide.
|
|
By:
agreed Zil.
Think Hills will probably go to the rail as with another doubtful stayer its handy to have that "support" of a rail when the petrol light starts to flicker. Fascinating how it will develop & who goes where in the 1st couple of furlongs. Just hope it doesnt turn out like Haafd when they where spread out all over the rowley mile & whilstvery profitable wasnt much of a spectacle. |
|
By:
strung out like 3 mile chasers in haafhd's guineas.
|
|
By:
Any rain at Newmarket today? How do we know there won't be a "watering" issue that affects the draw?
|
|
By:
Prosser reckons that the turftrax readings are uniform across the course, there is a article on the guardian website
|
|
By:
There are only 4 more runners than last year, when they can down the middle. CC ill def go to the near rail, so the field will probably be spread from that rail int the middle of the track.
Stall #1 for me again this year :D |
|
By:
Last year there where 15 runners , in fields of less than 18 it is usually best to be drawn in the 3 highest or 6 lowest stalls, Delegator 2nd drawn 15. In fields of 18+ it is best to be drawn in stalls 12 or higher. That info is from the RPost Trends.
|
|
By:
Loads of speed drawn low.
|
|
By:
winner comes from low numbers out quick, grab good position and go straight on, traffic problems behind, the front 2-3 may have flown by the time others sort themselves out properly
|
|
By:
Fencing Master couldn't be a pacemaker surely. He's too idle to be a pacemaker. Couldn't imagine him leading the 2000 guineas.................until the last half furlong perhaps!
|
|
By:
If they split into 2 groups SNA has his pacemaker VNelson drawn in 14, so expect him to make the pace for the high numbers, and Red Jazz to lead for the low numbers.
|

By:
I could be open to correction on this, but the largest field at the Craven meeting was the 5.55 on the Wednesday, run over 6f. There were 19 runners - a group of 5 stayed on the near rail the rest went far side, in the end there was very little overall advantage either way - but the near side did get 3/5 home. And all 5 were in the front 8.
The track did look narrower than last years Guineas? I presume the move the rails, keep gnd for the Guineas? |
|
By:
If as everyone suggests, the field come down the middle of the track but as usual Canford Cliffs is well away and edges to the rail will this maybe helpon this occasion as he's had his Greenham race behind him and will def strip fitter for that and as we all know Richard Hannon knows the time of day so to speak. Can Canford do what it did last year and spread eagle the field and hold on on this occasion? Will a strung across the width of the course field in the final 2 furlongs help or hinder St Nick ?
|
|
By:
Suprised your asking this,roughly 10,11, 16,17,was Footsteps in the Sands race stalls stand side?,if so confirms even more.

Well!!!!,nearly?
