Rivellino 5.00 Ascot. You allways get "this is a better race than last year" & stuff like that being said................Last yr was a good race..........It was run in a faster time than the G1 before it........the high numbers dominated........Rivellino was drawn worst of the 1st 8 home............It realy traveled into the race to finish 3rd........now of interest as its a year older & 2lb lower + it has a plum draw..........Normally on the AW started this season with a C1 listed win...........Then went on to find trouble from a bad draw in a 93K event & has since run down the field in a G3 Nmk...........a course where its not run well before.....I feel that its the same horse.............If not better......It has its highest AW rating which is 3lb higher than turf................with connections that dont make headlines 12345 E.W.seems feesable
