Heard about it but thank you for describing it!
"She has a little bit of a quirk and we need to reflect before making plans. She was in a long time and I suppose she has been slow to stride quite often in her races but she has always jumped out. It is obviously very worrying but I can't say yet what we are going to do because we are in a state of shock at the moment.
"She moved beautifully to post but she knows her way round the Knavesmire very well and the stable entrance is bang next to the stalls and she is cute, she is bright and whether that is the reason I don't know. But as Jamie said, no-one has died and the filly is fine."

As an aside, final fields for tomorrow.
Good luck to Hali who I'm surprised to see is the longest shot on the board in the Stresnsall.
Jarvis has a very nice runner in Rainbow Peak and Rio is wonderful (King's Gambit... I like him but his odds seems pretty damned low) but i will choose to hope for a miracle and that the well mannered gentleman who is stable mate to Mr. Let me Bite Your Hand Now (Youmzain!
) gets that long-awaited win.
Still pondering the big race... anyone have a pick?
Will the Starspangled one do it? (I always feel a little bad for his former trainer...)
