OR 110 running against what looks an 80 rated a 20 rated and an unknown 30k buy from haslams ...2/5 looks fair.

Been off since last June, presumably had a problem?
Plus never run on the surface before

Against a recent CD winner open to any improvement on second run

I won't be a backer or layer in this one, Wazza

2nd in the Coventry with subsequent Group 1 and 2 winners behind him, fair to say his form reads well, so why de feck is he running in a class 5 novice at Newcastle in early March, even if it is worth £8K to the winner?

you laying it George?

Nah.

it seems the horse was out injured and I think there is a bit more detail in this interview but it's behind a paywall

Cheers scoobytoo, I could see it mentioned the horse being sidelined, but evidently they didn't elaborate on what the issue was.

given a ride that suggests they didn't know what they had fitness wise. Beaten by a smarter jockey on the day

Didn't actually run too bad, but winner was too tough today.

Would be interesting to see how they go on from here..

"Just looking at the head-on there, the winner's deffo got a bit more size and scope about him"    No doubt about that George.  Looks a classic case of a two year old being overated ( fav ) and possibly not training on aswell.

Still say he got too high a rating in the first place. But yeah the handicapper didn't drop him so he's with you. I think he's  wrong. Bradsell ( future G1 winner )ran next time off 114 after winning the Coventry (2022 )  impressively from a subsequent G2 winner & twice G1 2nd. Royal Scotsman 3rd.  It was a much better race than 2023.

Agree, 2yo form red hot but that was then and this is now. Could pick up something short term but percentage call on the downgrade
