from the Hannon yard

We have had another terrific run with the two-year-olds this summer, and all four of our runners at York on day two of the Ebor meeting hail from the juvenile division, so, with £350,000 in prize money on offer in the first two races, hopefully we'll get a slice of the action.
    The boss said We run three in the valuable DBS Premier Yearling Stakes, which is a race we always target. Hughesie rides Crown Dependency, who will appreciate reverting to six furlongs, having found things happening a bit too fast for him over five in the Molecomb at Goodwood last time. He was staying on well at the finish and this trip is perfect for him. Magic City has not progressed as well as we would have liked since his explosive debut success at Newbury, but we have been trying to get him to settle and be more than just a whizz-bang two-year-old, and we were pleased how well he ran at Newmarket last time. Moustache won well at Goodwood, having been wrong when beaten at long odds-on at Chepstow, and he is a decent colt, too."

    We have decided to run  the unbeaten Best Terms against her own age and sex in the G2 Lowther Stakes rather than take on the older horses in the Nunthorpe.
    The boss said Best Terms is a May foal, so she surprised us by being so professional early on, and, though we weren't sure she would have the pace for the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot, Hughesie made the point that you need a six furlong filly to win that race, so we took a chance and it paid off. She has grown a bit since Ascot and is as tough as teak, and, while a penalty makes it that much harder, she won't be far away." BOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM 14.5 winner from Fire Lilly for the forecast 


Me ----(Best Terms is the top improver this race and only the ground could catch her out but she hasnt been on it so who knows) watch out for the horses who are not penalised but ran her very close that day - Fire Lily won a fillies´ maiden on easy ground, but then finished third to the subsequent Coventry Stakes winner in a Listedrace at the Curragh on fast. She was unable to go the early gallop, but picked up in the second half of the race and finished strongly, suggesting she will be more of a threat to the winner in race today - she will love the ground and she sluiced in at the curragh over 6f soft last time chased home by After who really did look good!
