Agree with comments made about MONDIALISTE this horse represents solid group form in Europe, and looks a value buy, and could prove a shade classier than many of these exposed handicappers(just a bugger about the draw)

Gone with Gabriels Kaka given they are going to ride him differently to last year where he looked the winner most of the way and Jack Garrity is claiming 5lb. Could be the difference today.

Think horses coming from behind who stay further than a mile will be suited by todays conditions as there is a strong, 20mph headwind straight up the home straight which will definitely be a factor.
Im on Hillbilly Boy at 33-1 but the headwind concerns me as I think 8f is his max and will need every assistance going today. Im praying Gabrials Kaka doesnt win as I ALWAYS get this horse wrong and last seasons Balmoral still gets my goat. I know, let it go... |

gone with Mondialiste 16/1 ew, also a little go at the Spring double (never done one before!) Mondialiste 16/1 and Merry King 25/1 ew 5 places...
Dream will probably die before 4 pm but find myself looking forward to the flat now in any event! Good luck, all. |

I'm on Gabriel, because I think it will win comfortably. But I've also done a trifecta perm
Gabriel Gabriel's Kaka Ocean Tempest Moohaarib Gabriel also my Scoop 6 pick. Years ago I had the trifecta in this when Our Rita won, but like a complete tool I wrote the draw numbers down instead of the racecard numbers. I had some consolation winning the exacta but ultimately that mistake cost me the best part of £700 from memory ![]() Needless to say I have never made the same mistake again, although I've never won another trifecta either ![]() |

well done for those on Gabriel
Have to say Mondialiste - French import from F Head Yard... ran a great race only neck behind ... First run from O'Meara yard - definately a horse to follow expect it to improve ... looks certain to be involved in some group races later this season |

I win antepost, rare event. Trusted in Fahey and Gabrial looked the better h'capped, bit of a plot horse with the 5 runs over further. Ocean Tempest needed softer as feared.
Down the pub after race to cheer Wales on. 3-0 and top the table, another rare event. What a day! |

really annoying yesterday, sporting life quick results put up Gabriels Kaka as the winner so I sat there with a big grin on my face in the pub for 20 mins before reading the post-race report.

As I posted to twatter:
Pj @FormJudge Fair to say those 9 faced the headwind? Last 9 finishers of the Lincoln. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CBRMGYYVAAEg7tt.jpg 2:34 PM - 29 Mar 2015 · Details Headwind had a huge effect. Worth noting. |

"The weather" in general is probably one of the most under-estimated aspects of racehorse form but is logical when you think about it.
I used to hate playing football in Winter (which was a bit of a bummer seeing as it's a winter game) but when the sun shone I was like Lionel Messi on speed. |

By:
The headwind was massive yesterday. Evident from the Spring Mile.
Really is worth taking a look at the Lincoln again with that in mind. The top 12 all had cover. Two different races. |

Well done winners. Fahey did say on The Morning Line that Gabrial was the one to be on. Gabrials Kaka was given a rare poor ride by G Lee.
I won't be giving up on Zarwaan - jumped well and was very handy (if you ignore the trailblazer Lincoln) and looked to be travelling very well 2 out - got a bit squeezed up and then found little in the last furlong (was that the effect of being too handy in that headwind??). Maybe the Victoria Cup might be on his agenda. |

Moohaarib, looks one to follow, had plenty left in final furlong, looked green as grass.
