Any thoughts on Perfect Power staying the mile in the Guineas?

I'd say it's pretty unlikely he will stay strongly enough to win

According to matt chapman the first thing soumillon said to fahey the other day after he got off him was that the horse is a sprinter (Chapman said this on the at the races flat preview)

Apparently something from Japan is going to come over for it, won in meydan forgot its name

Judging by the market its shahryar the form of that meydan race looks dubious at best so happy to take him on

Mostahdaf 6/1 Prince of Wales stakes is my next one

This doesn't look a strong division to me at all and is wide open to an improver like Mostahdaf

He is bred to just keep getting better and better being by Frankel out of a Dubawi mare and I can see him being rated 120+ by the end of the season

Only has one defeat on his CV which was when he was badly impeded at royal ascot last year hopefully he runs here and gets a bit better fortune

Inspiral to miss 1000g

Emily Upjohn impressive there. Oaks Entry.

The more I think about it, Goldspur at 40/1 for the Derby is a great price worth taking before he runs at Sandown today.

Will be interesting to see how he does

That he was running over 1m2f as a 2yo would make me think he might be more of a leger horse but if he wins over 1m2f on good ground today that opinion may change even though it doesn't look that strong a race

It'll be interesting to see how frantastic has trained on being a full brother to cracksman

Do you think there’s much between New London and Walk Of Stars?

Did not like the look of Walk of stars head carriage at all personally

He also hung to his left which makes me think he could well not handle epsom

[Sprinter Sacre]

Added 3 today

The Derby
New London 10/1

Was very impressed with how he ran the other day in what i reckon was a strong race. Think he will love a step up to 1m4f and being a dubawi should just keep improving

Platinum Jubilee
Creative Force 10/1
Minzaal 14/1

The first and third from the champion sprint, creative force has the makings of an ascot specialist.

I was very impressed with minzaal in the same race after only 1 run and a disrupted season. He is a Sprinter I intend to follow until the 3yos join the fray, he has plenty of potential for improvement.

Backed Agave at 10/1 for the Oaks on 365 with cashout as she’s shortening across the board. I think she’ll absolutely relish the extra two furlongs.

Nahanni won the Derby trial at Epsom today but he looked pretty slow to me, might be one for the leger

Couple of notes on the 2000 Guineas. Perfect Power is confirmed to be going and AOB said in his stable tour that Point Lonsdale is working very similarly to Luxembourg.

Given how native trail made Point Lonsdale look like a boat that's worrying for anyone on Luxembourg for the guineas
