Re: Glorious Goodwood (Day 2) - Wednesday 28th July 14:10 - Mission Control (EW) @ 25/1 Totesport A 20 runner handicap to get our teeth stuck into on the opening race on Day 2, run over two miles and five 5 furlongs. I respect David Pipe's Junior but I'm looking for one at a bigger price in such a wide open race which has led me to: Mission Control - I really like Tim Vaughan's horses and he has had a fantastic time of it of late, he has been sending out winner after winner over the jumps with a few flat winners sent in for good measure. Mission Control has never won over the distance or gone over such a distance on the flat but has shown useful form since switching to hurdles competing well in good races. He is back for a crack on the flat again and whilst this could well be asking to much for the horse he appears to be a lively outsider, he done alot of racing on the AW as a 2/3 year-old with a few good runs, nothing in this class. He has been showing useful form over hurdles though and it maybe that the horse is improving with age. If this wasn't from Vaughan's yard I probably wouldn't take the horse but I believe the yard to be quite a shrew one and they've been nibbling at this already.
