AOB still thinks the horse is a star,but on first out appearance,looked small and I thought hadn’t progressed from his 2 yr old outings,5/2 to win the Derby,should be an enjoyable watch to see if I am wrong.
no shortage of rain , not sure the horse will want a mile and half through a bog ,was beat after 6 furlongs at Newmarket ,any other trainer would be a lot bigger than 5 , will it run ?

I thought he looked a bit smaller than I expected in the 2000g guineas and the performance was awful. Given the the way the market is going a definite lay for me. Apart from Sir Henry, over the years I have never take much notice of the trainers bigging up their 3yo horses, preferring to see it back on the track. Even if means missing one the price is often miserly anyway.

My concern with him is that he might be a 10 furlong horse There were reasons for his Newmarket flop and they aren’t the ones that OBRIEN has been stating! He’s the most talented horse in the race and we aren’t just talking by 3lbs or whatever
In the Oaks I think FAIRY FOREST is pretty solid
All the best

The draw has to multiply concerns by 10. Going to have to go from the moment the stalls open methinks and the rating "advantage" from 3yo will be diminished significantly. To win he will have to "justify" the best ever tag AP has labelled him with.
