At the time of penning these notes 2 of the horses mentioned yesterday have run. Shumoohk finished 2nd but Alleviate was a disappointing favourite. She is by Indian Ridge though and it is possible that the ground was on the quick side for her.
After Alleviate’s failure at Lingfield Sir Mark Prescott will be hoping for better from another 3 year old handicapper in Copernican. He runs in the 4.05 at Hamilton.
I thought Destour ran quite well at Newmarket behind Transcend and should be in the shake up in the Haydock 2.50.
The 4.25 is the John of Gaunt Stakes where last years first and second, Quito and New Seeker are set for a rematch.
Hassaad was favourite for the Zetland Gold Cup but had no luck in running and looks to gain some consolation in the 7.55 at Sandown.
That is all for tonight.
