Trying a new tactic today. Normally for me whenever one of his looks rock solid on form it gets beat. Today I'm going to follow the market indicators. Poseidon's Warrior has been drifting despite having a run and easily having the best form (10lb in). WHY?

Where do you get 10lb well in, is that ORs? All too lightly raced to believe those figures.
RP ratings, I'm not sure how reliable they are tbf. My Love Is King has been backed today, having seemly been unfancied in a novice last time.
I always imagined that if you trained for Sheikh Mo, you'd want to be having as many winners as possible, and betting coups would be a lesser consideration.
Can't argue with that. Be interesting to see how it goes. Probably overthinking it.
“and betting coups would be a lesser consideration.”
You couldn’t be more wrong

Pacific Avenue 4/6f Fav beat by an unexposed type.
Not done a lot for the Solario Stakes (Group 3) or Royal Lodge Stakes (Group 2) form
Humidity beaten in both of those races too.

Last. Poseidon's Warrior could hardly have run amy worse...
His form is pants at the moment, 1 winner from last 18 runners. All his runners drifted yesterday especially Posiedon and Wise Approach at Ascot. Both morning favourites, both finished out of first 3.
In the stewards report:-
"Following the race, Charlie Appleby reported that POSEIDON'S WARRIOR (IRE), placed fifth, was
unsuited by the ground described as Good to Firm, and would prefer a slower surface; the Veterinary
Officer examined the colt post-race and had nothing to report."
...but let's run it anyway and lay the fack out of it! Plenty of money laying it in clumps of £800/1000 from early.

thx for info, I hadn't realised his recent form was so pants. For some reason I take trainer form into account in NH races, but clearly don't pay enough attention to recent top flat trainers.
They're all out of form until they hit form. It's just knowing when before it happens.
This was from the posts live feed :
That said, Appleby was 10 from 36 (28 per cent strike-rate) last April before winning the Guineas, and 9 from 28 (32 per cent) the April before before also winning the Guineas, so this April's figures of 10 from 35 (29 per cent) suggests bigger picture the horses are pretty much where they have been the last two years, even if the two weeks isn't as encouraging.
Big drift on Kings Trail today , but hard to know if that’s after the interview with Trapman
