TODAY! The Great Voltigeur Stakes York 220812

The big one! its a watcher really  ladies and gentlemen but I cannot resist looking at the place and win market for my 80% / 20% Place/ win selection 

 Frankel at 1/7 pacemakers galore and ground going to be lightening fast with the drying conditions. 
Without Nathaniel who would have been in the mix up but for the ground conditions  - where do we look for an animal that can fill the runner up spot? 

Naughty Boy Farhh under Frankie Dettori  has its ground and cannot be taken lightly - its fast finishing 1/2 length behind Nathaniel offers hope - its mucking about in the stall was not so evident at Sandown and the good to soft ground was against him that day. 4yr old Colt by Pivotal who has the right dosage requirements and its penchant for fast ground says he is the best of the rest at this distance - Runners who fared well in the Eclipse as that race was have come on to win here this race 6 times in the last 10 years and the trainer has won it twice 

see you at the races - not one to miss
