Striker

Much better run to finish 2nd only beaten by the odds on Fav, with the two of them finishing clear

Backed down to single figures, and despite being a bit free got on the lead and seemed settled But she lost her action 2 furlongs out and was eased, so her future is in some doubt now

Now that the Trainer has had a couple of winners Emporio should run better tomorrow [4.55 Gowran Park] Opened up at 6-1

...and Missile goes up in trip tomorrow for her seasonal debut! This time [4.15 Chester] looks like she will be a working mans price...current odds of 14-1

Ran well to get the place money in 2nd

2.15-Josies Orders 2.50-Eurobot 4.00-Quilixios 4.30-Ten Ten 5.05-Ciel De Neige 6.10-Golden Wonder's

4.15-Fan De Blues 7.05-El Barra

Malawi Think its of interest that at the latest entry stage for the Irish Derby, that the above colt is the only yet to race one of 33 horses Aidan O'Brien has left in the race

Very weak in the betting and well beaten off in 4th But was doing best work up the straight and will pay to follow, probably in handicaps

4.15-Entoucas 5.25-Beacon Edge

The standing start after numerous false starts were a disgrace in the two big handicaps in Ireland today, with horses whipping around and others being hampered and left with a hopeless task Its embarrassing and leaves punters with a nasty taste in the mouth when your money is lost before the first fence or hurdle is jumped

Will be a each way price for his seasonal debut tomorrow [3.35 Lingfield] Opening odds of 10-1

3.40-Bigz Belief 7.00-Embittered

Though a beaten Fav, a decent run in 2nd and will get the job done when stepped up in trip

3.40-Scholastic 4.50-Jazzaway

Missed the cut...so no more involvement, unless 200-1 +

June 3rd [US Open]

As Kevin Keegan once said "I would Love it"..... If Saffron Beach wins the 1,000 Guineas on Sunday! As think her trainer Jane Chapple-Hyam is top class and deserves a top group horse to go to war with. One thing certain is this filly would be half her current odds if trained by Gosden/Godolphin etc 12-1? ...yes please

Turns out Benoit told a little lie! Such a shame that he now faces a long suspension but is with a stable who back their jockeys so he will hopefully learn from this this and is being mentored by Frankie

Poor run so will be a bit lighter next time he runs

Encouraging to see her strong in the market on seasonal debut tomorrow at Haydock...11-4 into the current 2-1

Almost last 3 furlongs out, and the first of the market leaders to be ridden

Strange run showing early pace to lead and then eased by Boudot when headed, though the first two home were isolated on the opposite side of the track

Horse comes back in trip tomorrow (2.05 Compiegne) Been put in as the market leader (15-8)

Impressive Win as looked one of the first beat a couple of furlongs out, and will be interesting to see what his talented trainer targets next for the horse
