CT, good luck with ERICHT.....stands out on form in this maiden, but I dont think its as easy as that, not one to trust for me, hope it wins for you.
Koikeeper I wouldn't be too hasty to write off this horse as if you did a bit more homework
using a few golden rules in looking at the form of 2/3 year old horses.
1.....Never take form or ratings for granted as many horses will of overcome
many problems to arrive at a mark than others that have had a blessed route!
2.....When backing 2 year olds always consider the exact birthdate of each runner
as some will be more forward than others at a critical time in a horses development
and you can get horses sometimes many months in advance of rivals.
3.....The amount of days since a horse last ran is a very important factor
in determining a horses current fitness but for 2 and 3 year olds
a longer break can hide a different horse after the horse has come
on many pounds as it matures, so beware of ignoring horses that have been off
for 60 days or more!
4....Pay attention to maiden horses that have been heavily backed LTO
as many are fancied from good form on the gallops.
Too Difficult is a very promising filly out of rock of Gibraltar and is also
related to the great Unfuwain so will take well to AW tracks and
has plenty of scope for improvement.
Too difficult only run this year was fraught with problems for her
as she had to contend with heavy going at Yarmouth so it
is always going to be more difficult for a young horse first time
out to run true when its action will be ungainly on such a loose
surface and indeed she ran very green.
Too Difficult then had to contend with a very poor start as she was left in her box
by the field and lost the race almost straight away but this didn't stop the
horse showing us how good sher really is as the jockey quickly gathered her
together and had no problem getting here into the fore of the race
in which she had trouble on in the final phases as she was snatching
here stride in the mud of Yarmouth.
Against all this she started off at 11/4 and for very good reasons
as had the going of been better than heavy and here start wasn't
terrible here form would now read "win" and not "2nd"
Add to this the fact that the trainer is in fair form, here great breeding
here long absence that mean she will of come on at here tender age a few pounds
and you have a very interesting bet today
using a few golden rules in looking at the form of 2/3 year old horses.

ERICHT is a 6yr old....you thought I was talking about the 2yr old....its on the AW, something I dont look at!!
BTW...I do actually do the homework....proper homework that is & not ratings that you dont back up with your own money!

Too Difficult a non runner, all that talk and typing wasted...!
BF..why the Damn....you dont bet so what difference does it make?
Koikeeper what do ou think of PURE FUN,s chances in 12.50 muss plz
Jojo, watching it run it will definitely appreciate the better ground, seemed to flounder last time over hurdles, stayed on though,
Quickened up well in the jumper bumper on the AW...Muss is a speed track so should suit it
on a couple of form lines, it could have a few pounds in hand here.
