Found this meeting very hard to find any value whatsoever. A few shorties should do the business, so trying to find the biggest of those shorties for the nap was tricky. The good races look ultra competitive, but a few shocks wouldn't surprise me.

R2 - Roayh, Krypton Factor (alt; Ahlaain)
R3 - Mahbooba, Reem (Alt; Abtasaamah)
R4 - Buzzword, Telluride (alt; La De Two)
R5 - Our Giant, Alo Pura (alt; Inxile)
R6 - Quick Wit, Munaddam (I'd follow this one off a cliff I think!!!!) (alt; Tybalt)
R7 - Gitano Hernando, Spring Of Fame (alt; Interaction)
R8 - Here To Win (NAP), Hot Six (alt; Absolute Heretic)


Good luck all.

edit - Oh good boy!

I know most of you don't read the HK thread or the were going to thread but he was named for Natural Blitz who won the HK Sprint in a huge upset and who broke down just past the wire in the Centenary Sprint Cup.

Anyway, thrilled for the connections.

The AmWest form was wrong on Dynamic Blitz, showed him finishing third on turf last time, when really, he was on the polytrack. For those who receive my newsletter, he was the longshot play of the day!

Looks like a bit of a blood bath for almost everyone. Some of those results are hard the work out. Warsaw? He was probably the first horse I took out. Lord Of The Stars? How on earth has he managed to put in a career best effort from nowhere?

I also didn;t really fancy Star Empire today, nor Bold Silvano, who I thought would be there for a track gallop in a race which looked very likely not to suit. How wrong I was.

Our Giant and Here To Win..... what happened? I didn't see any racing. I thought they were both good things.

The pp's don't go back this far but I think it was the Norfolk Stakes where he did really badly and then a few after that (at the Curragh).

I just never expected much after that (although he did win a few).

Anyway good for you!

As far as the HK boys, I'll only say this once (yeah, right ) Beauty Flash is going to the Duty Free.

Tony Cruz hasn't had the greatest luck with his runners over there (and I mean all three were ******* superb horses... Bullish Luck (the pre-DWC trips) , Russian Pearl and Floral Pegasus) BUT he doesn't send them over for no reason.

This is a really nice horse.

Here are his records / replays...
