Flat Racing - Friday 15th April 2011

[RuleBritannia]

210 Newbury - Sikeeb 1pt EW @ 12/1 Hills Won a maiden last season as a 2yo in good enough fashion on good ground, with the 2nd,3rd and 4th in that race all going out and winning since then. Stepped up massively in class to run at Redcar in a class 1 listed event, but finished close to the rear and was completely unsuited by the ground. Back on good ground here and off a mark, which if forgettng the last run looks like one he can make an impact off. Drop in class here too from that run lto and this looks more his level.

Sport	Horse Racing
Event	Newbury 14:10
Selection	El Muqbil
Strength	10/10
Date	15/04/2011
Bookmaker/Price	Betfred @ 4.33
Reasoning	Had a good 2yo campaigh last year with now three runs for experiene. Debut was at Newmarket in July keeping on for a 4th of 14 finish by 4 3/4L. Finished second in the next (and last ) two runs. Finished 2nd by 1 1/7L to the Hannon/Murtagh runners Moriarty. Beaten only by a "head" LTO to the Dettori ridden Argocat. It was a good battle between 1st and 2nd with Dettori getting ahead of the R Hills mount. The selection is still entered for the Derby and likely to race in it to make up for his yearling price of 450,000gns.
