  • Coral-Eclipse Sandown 2020

    A race I am very much looking forward too, from a tactical point of view it is very intriguing, what does Frankie do with enable in this race?

    Enable or Ghaiyyth , who wins and why? any other dark horses?

    Anyone know if the plan is for Japan to head here? RP article after Magical’s win today seems to think so but I haven’t seen any specific quotes. If this is the plan then 10s looks cracking EW value. I’d expect to see plenty of improvement from Ascot and he’s likely to love having Ghaiyyath’s blistering pace to aim at over a stiff 1m 2f. I’m inclined to be worried that PP are standout 10s!

      Ghaiyyth pops out and makes all. Enable will have to sit handy but I just feel she won’t get past.

        This is what I’m thinking - the going has been released today too : good , good to firm in places. Only niggle is that he doesn’t back up his good performances but enable may not be as race sharp herself With 9 months off the track. She only has 50% strike rate over this trip too and sandown lends itself to a front runner

          Japan goes Coral and Magical goes for the King George

            I haven't warmed to Ghaiyyath at all.


            Enable needed her weight allowance to be a better horse than Crystal Ocean, so she's far from unbeatable.




            Somebody on here said they would rather have owned Enable than Frankel. Still annoys me.

              Enable is (obviously) a wonderful horse but at the prices she has to be worth taking on on her seasonal debut over this trip in what looks very likely to be a stronger race than last year. Ghaiyyath looks a monster on his day but he has to prove he can string high class races together. With those two taking up so much of the market I reckon there’s some real each way value to be had.

                8 entries for Coral-Eclipse. Lord North's connections reported it unlikely target for him but he ran well from off the pace at ascot .. what do you think of him at 5/1?

                  Likely to get the dead 8?

                  If you do like him each way it may be worth going for him ante post... can't see him 1st or 2nd in the betting on the day but he won't be an obvious each way poke with 7 runners if Enable and Ghaiyyath both run.

                    Anybody know if Deirde is going to run? 25s seems far too big even accounting for first run

                      True strong - I went to the coral eclipse last year and went through the card bar one race. Only time I’ve ever been to Sandown.

                      Haven’t made my mind up just yet on Enable v Ghaiyatth. I think Sandown should suit him but I’m adamant he’s not the same horse if there’s a pacemaker taking him on early. If ballydoyle send japan, they should bring a pacemaker just to unsettle Ghaiyatth at the same time.

                        Magic Wand could be that!

                          still 3 places available in lots of places

                          Bigger story here is the quote from Gosden that Lord North is more likely to wait for the Juddmonte. Watch your bets on him for Sunday folks.

                            Typical trainer defence mechanism.

                            Might need the run.?

                            What the fuck does that mean ?

                            Has she had a problem ?, has training been held up ??

                            Just waffly shit just in case she gets beat.

                            The Lord North news is good news for Ghaayaith fans as he would have been a worry for me personally in terms of staking that is.

                            The negative is the price is unlikely to be anywhere near 3-1 again, especially if Lord North don't run and Gosden's wimpy comments on enable.
