Well, I was right, with my Bet of the Week.
Finest Sound was thrown in at the weights for the Britannia, took up the lead looking good under 2 out
.......then..........wooosh........Kahloosy happened.
Can’t be gutted when you’re beaten by a horse that impressive.

Still no rain but it is surely a question of when, rather than if it arrives.
1.15 Filed in the too difficult.
1.50 Again no obvious standout.
2.25 King Leonidas EW. Big, scopey horse who has looked like a potential Group horse. Under The Stars NR. You would have thought this race would have been perfect but instead they have chosen to confirm that she doesn't stay a mile in the Coronation. Shame.
3.00 Battlegrond (Win). Promising debut and a top pedigree. Hopefully, one race where the draw shouldn't be a significant factor.
3.35 No bet but Stradivarius looks a class apart.
4.10 Hopefully, Crowley time again. Khaloosy EW. Not exactly thrown in but plenty of potential. Should stay further but rain a likely negative.
4.40 Waliyak EW. Likely she didn't quite produce her home form on the track last season but that has left her on a decent mark. Another who will stay further and this time rain shouldn't be an excuse.
For the best of the day I will go with Waliyak.
Let's hope it's a winner in the last!
