Summary of Results

Mishrif you could say was a speculative bet for the 1/2 point played and didn't really run up to his best form on this 1st run for the change of stables so not one of my best decisions.

Only 11 of the 15 intended runners went to post and Valdan got buffeted about on the rails around halfway which didn't help, but the slow pace by eventual winner Eton Fable saw him dictate the race from start to finish so fair play to jockey Travis Block for getting it right.
Given that the pace angle for the race, Gaselee was a withdrawal after bets were out has went against us on this occasion, and given a re run with all the declared runners with a true run race and I would come to the same selection.
Brighton not my favourite course so a slight slip on discipline in that respect and 1.5 point loss today a step backward after yesterday, but tomorrow another day.
