Yesterday didn’t go according to plan, with Fame and Glory finding absolutely nothing on the run in. It just seems he wasn’t good enough on the day. The frustrating thing is that was the 1st time I hadn’t backed colour vision is some form…and it went and won. Never mind still in a small profit and hopefully today’s pick will contribute a little more to the bank balance.
King Edward VII Stakes

NOBLE MISSION is the full brother to Frankel. With 2 wins and 2 second places from his 4 starts he has some ability. He won nicely on at Newmarket on Good to Soft back in May and was put up 7lbs for that effort this meant that he ran next time out giving 5lbs to Thought Worthy on Good to Firm, he went down by ¼ length. With some give in the ground today and level weights those placing’s should be reversed.
The main danger however is Derby 3rd Astrology. He was the pace maker in that race and people say will be ridden differently today. He may be but on his previous start at Chester he made all to win by 11 lengths in a poor race at Chester.
I feel that he will attempt to front run again but the fast finishing Noble Mission will pick him up close to the line as he tires. With the selection back on ground more to his liking I feel he is overpriced.
1 point win at 5.80
