They wont put a glove on at fishers cross if back to best but im not sure this horse will ever reproduce those heights? only a 8 yr old so not without a chance to do so but at the price i have to take this on, The top rated has a relatively bad s/r in the race (16%) yet they clearly gone off short on average as shown in the returning PL on ceiling of ability it wins no problems but is priced accordingly.
I like the chances of Land Of Vic @ 6/1 who is progressing nicely and any horse who runs well in a graded race at ascot deserves respect ,something previous winners also did but probably more important is the trainer took the same route with 2010 winner Souffleur.....that horse was a slow burner also and although land of vic definitely improved last time and stayed on strongly from a unpromising position after a unfortunate incident and i dont think we have seen the best of her and just like the fairer sex in human form - they have to be in a good mood to perform
