Why is the craven meeting not this week
It's going to be so close to the guineas most horses won't run

Prague for the Lockinge stakes at 33/1 is worth a small punt, goes to Sandown on the 25th for the G2 over a mile for his prep, not sure who'll be riding but Tudhope will be very unlikely, GL.

It may seem silly to be putting one up for the chester cup without knowing the draw, but I see AOB has London City in there at 16/1 as his only entry. He won well at York off top weight over 12f recording a decent rpr and this is a meeting O'Brien likes to target.Comment

Case in point is cosmic year who ran at kempton tonight. Would surely have run at the craven meeting had it been this week.Originally posted by FinalFurlong91 View Post
He is now 6/1 generally for the guineas after winning very stylishly
He's bolted up on both starts now
Clocked a top speed over 42mphComment

Interesting race to watch at Newbury tomorrow
Queen of thieves, full sister to cracksman
takes on
Serenity prayer, by dubawi out of peach tree who is a full sister to love
Many oaks contenders will start making their debuts/having their first runs at 3 from now
Just a race to keep an eye on i reckonComment

The Craven meeting has always been too close to the Guineas weekend.Originally posted by FinalFurlong91 View Post
Its always needed pushing back a week giving 3.5 weeks between races, to give those horses running in a trial the chance to run well in both.
Another of a fixture nonsense weve been carrying for years, like Aintree often being too close to the Festival at Cheltenham

The Lincoln meeting is also too earlyOriginally posted by Saxon Warrior View Post
Having the Lincoln on the weekend then the craven a few days later would be a proper start to the flat seasonComment

Ancient wisdom will either hate the ground or be a non runner
Sunway doesn't like winningComment

Knew my fate pretty early with that one. Too keen in the early stages.Originally posted by FinalFurlong91 View Post
Was correct to take the top two on but chose the wrong one.Comment

Joseph's horse that won the first at the curragh has royal ascot written all over herComment

Mountain Breeze - woeful runOriginally posted by HoldenTheReins View Post
Rashabar - 2nd
Crown Of Oaks - Bloggered
Secret Theory - Won but 2nd looks useful also after being trapped to the rail

Back fresh off holiday and getting stuck into Opera Ballo @ 11/2 with William Hill for the Craven.
Not bothered about jockey bookings, with Buick being on the other one. I really fancied Opera Ballo for the 2k Guineas, and the Craven is a weaker race, so no reason not to go max bet for me now in a weaker race.Comment
