CARRY ON UP TO THE KNAVESMIRE

CARRYTHEONE. If there is any justice in the horse racing world (often there isn't) then this lad must win a big one sooner rather than later. After such a promising run at Ascot where he was a fast finishing third, luck should have swung his way in the Bunbury Cup but Ryan Moore couldn't find a big enough gap to slot through earlier enough to have a realistic chance of winning but he steamed home for third and left the impression that he must surely go in soon. Tracks like York and Goodwood which feature in August may not suit given they are both around a bend but, providing Michael Bell can find an opportunity over a straight track, I'm sure he is a winner in waiting.

STOP THE CAVALRY. I was surprised to see Ralph Beckett's filly drift so much at Chester on her reappearance where she defied an absence to win very comfortably. A decent 2yo with a preference for soft ground, she was always going to appreciate the softer conditions at Chester but clearly the market thought the absence was too much to overcome. However, she defied that market weakness in no uncertain terms as she careered away up the straight to win easily. An 8lb rise seemed fair on that performance but I don't think that will stop her next time out providing some cut and a good pace to aim at. On pedigree 7f would definitely be within her remit and I wouldn't be averse to jumping up to a mile at some point too.
