Appleby's stable not fireing for whatever reason but thought Al Zanati beat Wise Prince
on merit when they met LTO.Their rnr in the Fillies race wasn't exactly hammered.Out of The Godolphin 3,think this could be their best chance if the corners turning. GL |

Gutted to miss a nice Balding winner. I went to Salisbury today so had to watch the Dante on a big screen with no commentary. I knew which one won though
. I looked at the race this morning and was sure Item was a double figure price. Still had a good day with good old reliable Mr Freedom place only, Sea The Fire and Pierian and I didn't oppose Item. Orthodox was well backed and looked very professional for a FTO 2yo. |

Hey Brandy did Pride of Harris progress much last year after the Dante?! If you type his name into the search bar on the Racing Post all of his form comes up. You can see by his post Dante runs, the answer is NO. |

It seems like a lack of people willing to discuss the merits of a Derby trial sadly.
What are your thoughts Brandy, do you see Item as good value at 5/1 which was the same price Pride Of became after winning last year? Both races leave questions for me, last year was a bunched finish with the Pacemaker Devils Advocate 80/1 remaining in 4 th not beaten far. We can draw the same conclusion with this years race, no it wasn’t bunched because the field split, but apparent pace maker Action stayed on ahead of the others to fill the frame. That makes me question it. What I will say though is that item is a horse despite not being a looker or talent as he’s put lengths between he and the rest on all three races. That’s rare. 3 1/2L , 3 1/2 , 2 3/4 I remember Nick Mordin wrote that a horse who does this is G1. |
