Re:Re:Very good or great? As Paddington hits York.

Absolutely brilliant tactics from Gosden. No doubt it was their intention to go to the front. Looking forward to the interview.

Well done Mostahdaf.

That was great ride by Frankie Dettori

I think it was their intention to go to the front. Mostahdaf normally comes from off the pace.

Wonderful race and coverage 👏

Punting aside this is racing at its best 👌

Mostahdaf replay with interview. Tactics won the race.

Good morning

As expected day one was not a day for Punting although I did have a go on Paddington.
No favourites arrived.

However the quality of racing and coverage on channel 207 was again outstanding.

When Ryan beat Frankie with Continuous we expected the same in the Juddmonte but Frankie had something special up his sleeve.

"Check the video above "

I dont want to take anything away from Paddington as it is a "good horse" and the win by
Mostahdaf shows how "great" the Japaneses star EQUINOX really is.

I really don't have much good news for the punters today as my only punt is Savethelastdance and it would have preferred soft going and is currently 11/2 in betting and can be punted ew.
Frankie is on the fav Free Wind.

We will be OK on Friday as Highfield Princess has shortened from 28/10 to 18/10 now 16/10 to recover any losses.

Good Punting 👍

Leaving today's card at York to one side.Very difficult.

As usual the place accumulator will be my main bet (that and a small percentage of the jackpot yesterday baled me out from Patent . Yankee losses) .... but I took the following yankee ...outlay a princely R110.

The favorite in the first does look rather hard to oppose but to my mind has had a tough season .... Cherry Blossom has that real 'come on' look about her ... and the fact that she started favorite for a listed race on debut speaks volumes about what she shows at home
