Striker Posted August 21, 2020 Author Share Posted August 21, 2020 Got the place money in 5th But looked good to win entering the final furlong when leading, but as quoted above I do think he will be seen to maximum effect on better ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted August 24, 2020 Author Share Posted August 24, 2020 The Fillies' Novice at Newmarket on Friday looks pretty exciting at the entry stage, with a whole host of blue blooded possible runners Some with form but a lot could make their debut and it is one of them that catches my eye and I understand is held in some regard by top connections A'Shaari Dubawi filly for Godolphin, and interestingly is already Jocked up [Buick] vikki37, BBBC and yossa6133 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 congrats Striker. I am now a believer!

Striker Posted October 14, 2020 Author Share Posted October 14, 2020 Despite strength in the market a disappointing debut Got restless in the stalls and missed the break on a track where it pays to be prominent. She did though make a sweeping run 2f out but got impeded and started to hang. Would say the ground tired her out, and next time you will probably see her on one of the all weather tracks BBBC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 Not sure if this yet to race New Approach filly will get a run over the winter, but am told despite being in the relatively small stable of William Muir that she has a lot of natural ability Country Pyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Striker Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 Considering she went off at 100-30...that was disappointing! Again showed temperament issues when being loaded into the stalls, but jumped off fine and looked in control of the race from the front...was matched at 1.58! But she folded tamely when challenged and my first thought was the horse did not stay, so a drop in trip looks a must next time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 Search For A Song She has been a very good friend to this topic and indeed followed up her Irish St Leger victory again this autumn But it was her final run of the season on Champions Day at Ascot that really excited me when attempting 2 miles for the first time ran on well to finish 2nd after being in my opinion given too much to do However it tells me there is still a lot of stamina in the filly, and I am confident that next season she will be trained with the Cup races in mind and will be the horse to beat vikki37 and BBBC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striker Posted November 19, 2020 Author Share Posted November 19, 2020 As for the National Hunt, this staying Irish chaser is well on my radar At The Acorn Trained by Tony Martin whose owners paid €150,000 for this now only 6 year old a couple of years ago Has only won the one race so far but appears to me to be a target horse for a big staying handicap chase on winter ground, and its significant that both runs this season have been over hurdles and at too short a distance I was wondering whether one of the targets is going to be the Welsh Grand National over Christmas, and then yesterday he appeared in the entry list. So have had a little interest at 25-1 [five places] with Paddy Power yossa6133 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
