SFR was more overweight than I am

. That combined with him getting very hot under the saddle, wide draw and short trip, 17/10 in hindsight seems almost 4 points too short.

Hope they get more work into him leading up to the WC night

Kieran Fallon basically cost VC the win there..he kept VC out,why I don't know.
Fallon's mount is a 7furlong horse,so over a mile you would think he would want to hold Empire Storm up not get into a race early.
And Fallon finishes near last,while making Marcus go a tad to quick

We're fans, so let's say surface!

Duty Free next, despite the 1800 metres?

To me he looked completely flat.

They didn't go that fast and still he couldn't go to the front.

Remember just because he was training well doesn't mean he can't suffer from 2nd run after a rest syndrome. It happened to quite a few MDK horses last year and 3rd run back they were MUCH better,

I would not lose too much heart in that run personally.

I think he will no doubt go for the Godolphin Mile. Just my opinion
