DANGEROUS MIDGE (38) will almost certainly start a whole lot bigger for the Breeders' Cup Turf than the stingy 12-1 the bookies are currently offering. And I concede that even when I adjust my speed figure to take account of the slow early pace and sprint finish I can't give him better than a Group 3 class rating for his win in the Arc Trial at Newbury.
However the thing that was most impressive about Dangerous Midge at Newbury is exactly what wins big US turf races, namely his finishing speed. He quickened up in tremendous fashion off the crawl set by Monitor Closely. In fact I clocked him running the final two furlongs in exactly the same time that Astrophysical Jet managed in the Group 3 over five furlongs at the meeting next day. The way that Dangerous Midge simply left his rivals for dead in the final furlong was rather impressive. I can see him running a big race at Churchill Downs. |
