GOODWOOD - Friday

This is the colts version to spring a surprise in the Derby market  or it would be if the winner was entered?

I say 'the winner', because quite clearly in the:

3.45 Goodwood - the winner MICHELANGELO.
Even with the false run race, he should have far to much class for these. It will be hard to up his figure if it is a slow run race, but given his excellent first run, improvement is almost guaranteed? Being by Galileo out of a Darshaan mare he will appreciate the better ground ... and 12f should he be supplemented for the Derby?
More likely is a run at at Royal Ascot, where a good 5 length win here will make him a force to be reckoned with ... we shall see?

Yesterday I gave two bits of information: One, Coquet winning, not emphatically, but might be enough to get a run in the Oaks. If well place as they turn from home at Epsom, I can see her staying very well, particularly that final 150yds uphill. Yes, she has a lot to do off her current mark, but with improvement for both the run and extra 2.5f, she could be bang there for a place at least?

The other was duff info, with me confusing my 'Bermondsey' with my 'Boomerang'. I did it in reverse when writing the blog the other day before ... the link obviously stuck after looking through the late cards! I put it down to early altzheimer's .... Now what was I saying?

Have a good day ...
