I know that Meehan isn't the greatest trainer to follow, but he hasn't done too much wrong with this horse so surprised it is such a big price. There must be a fair chance he can place. Field Of Gold is a worthy favourite (no doubt Shoemark fans will be hoping it loses and we will hear from them later if that happens - that's today's NAP), but Cosmic Year needs to improve and could easily be a non-stayer, Officer needs to improve, and Hotazhell probably wants softer ground.

yeah dd i tend to agree regarding rashabar price looks too big ,good solid form in group races plenty of exp ,also like hotashell might be better over a bit further but group 1 form and not done a lot wrong biggish price .

He does look the value play in this but I wouldn't say he was crying out for the Mile. If he get the trip, he'll be there abouts. As for FOG, the general consensus on here was that the horse should have won on the bridle in the 2000gns. This is a weaker race than that one so I'll expect plenty will be getting stuck into him today

No doubt FOG backers will wait until AFTER the race if it wins to tell us all how it really should have won the 2000gns as it liked (NAP)

good luck wonders ,fog may well be too good but price is short enough ,cosmic could be anything , money for officer and he is improving but short enough now , expanded has a shout on his dewhurst form and a big price if you can ignore the gns run .cant back em all tho and rash and hotas hell will do for me.good luck all.

I've always preferred horses who missed newmarket for this race
newbury form boosted by jonquil & hah 2yo form way above novice form 2nd fav nice e/w race 2 obvious bets imo gl |
|
By:
The 12f Listed race nearly 4 seconds inside standard. It does look breezy there so maybe wind assistance has played a part in that, but I think we can safely assume FOG ain't getting his Craven ground.
|

By:
also fav sectional upgrade from newmarket not enough to reverse placings that 11/10 today built in like it won the guineas imo
|

The Charlton steed, whoosh (hopefully)

Rashabar certainly a sensible place play. Rather a lot of second places to back to win.
|
|
By:
With what GB has pointed out, will the ground be softer enough for Hotazhell
 |
|
By:
What is going on with the going then? Still reported as Good in the RP.

By:
WP - i really do think FOG should have won the english guineas and also think it will be too good for these today

An alarming drift on FOG to 2.4

Hope they don't get too much rain for Rashabar, but he coped with it in France. Curragh a stiff mile, but I would be more concerned about Windlord forcing him to do too much too early on the front end.

By:
"Unfortunately, Rashabar has had a bit of an interrupted preparation for this Classic, and should improve from whatever he does today. He is in terrific shape though and I reckon he has a live each-way chance."

I didn't like the head carriage of Cosmic Year but it hasn't stopped it winning

Forget his Guineas run,Expanded seems well over priced @ 50s on here.
Can run well in this if reproducing his Dewhurst form.This might've been his target anyway,don't think he was supposed to run in our 2000, took over from the injured rnr.4 Plcs on here available aswell. GL ALL |
|
By:
James's Delight a big drifter there perhaps in anticipation that the ground would be too quick for him, but perhaps that bit of rain was enough to take the sting out of it.
|

By:
Expanded and Hotazhell for me if the fav bombs. I cannot have Officer despite his trainer.
|

By:
The one I included on my big price Saturday 'unlucky' 15 is the complete 'rag' - Commanche Brave.
In the hope he's not just in here as a pacemaker for Officer. He travelled like a travelly thing in the 7f G3 at Leopardstown on his return and got to the lead narrowly inside the final furlong before being run down by the subsequent French Guineas winner Henri Matisse, with a subsequent French Group 3 winner behind him in third. Has his stamina to prove for a mile but don't mind backing a 70-1 poke each-way who finished runner-up to a subsequent Classic winner on his latest start and may still be open to improvement. |

bit of place money that will do

Wonder what Gosden will be saying after that.

A good winner today and the rain didn't harm its chances either.
No need for jockey bashing |
