With Rob Havlin being the jockey I would expect a nice introductory ride. The usual quotes / comments from connections post race that the horse will improve when stepped up in distance etc., etc.,
Of course it could be that connections feel that it is important for the first Frankel offspring to run should win on debut. If that is the plan they have the right trainer to ensure success. |

Still remember somehow sneaking into a betting shop as a 14 year old in 1976 because I was desperate to back a colt called Etienne Gerard, being the first offspring of Brigadier Gerard to race.
Also remember the dumbfounded mortification on his name not appearing in the first three in the results. And unlike Frankel the Brigadier was a proper thoroughbred, who raced over 12f. |

I like Queally for a sympathetic ride which he gave to Frankel on debut.
Then he goes from the sublime to the ridiculous rides he gave Frankel in the Guineas and St James Palace . Fortunately Frankels class saw him thro |

Johnny, I agree that just because this is the first Frankel to run (and might easily be the worst), it is no reason to back him but although Brig Gerard was a great racehorse, he didn't come from such a purple pedigree as Frankel did. Cunco was an early foal, not very big apparently and trainer was keen to dampen enthusiasm.
