Had expected this to be odds on, but it's now a very different story. He was second favourite to Albert Einstein in the ante-post Coventry market. He won easily on debut, but his head carriage wasn't great, and those in behind that have run have all been beaten. Very likely an ordinary race for the track. Then you add in Appleby not having had a winner at this meeting for nearly three years. If it comes off the bridle early - Buick is the last jock you want on board in those circumstances - I can't see it battling out a success. More likely the horse will just be eased down.
Absolutely pathetic. No other words. All the warnings proved to be spot on. There are many better looking horses than him, and one's that try a lot harder.

Great write up Drum… Appleby is really struggling could be a sick note coming from the vet as his horses are all folding tamely and Buick is the last one you wanna see in a battle…
