Racing Ahead – August 2019

12

day break/debut for a new yard. He
was never really put in the race by
David Probert, but caught the eye
staying on through dead-wood to nab
sixth. He’ll leave this form behind and
could be a useful dual-purpose per-
former.

NEWBURY July 11 (good-firm)
6f two-year-old colts & geldings
(Class 5)
USEFUL EVENT
MASTER SPY (Paul Cole) really took
the eye in the paddock but looked
green to post and got unsettled in the
stalls. He did well to stick on for fifth
after blowing-up at the furlong pole
and will improve significantly for the
outing. There’s much more to come
from him.

1m2f three-year-old novice (Class 5)
SMART FORM
AWAY HE GOES (Ismail Mohammed)

is a strong colt who shaped encourag-

ingly behind a smart one on his debut

three weeks earlier. He did well to win

this after being trapped on the rail for

much of the straight and clearly has a

decent engine. He’s with a shrewd

yard and can win a big pot.

ASCOT July 12 (good-firm,

good in places)

6f handicap (Class 3)

IMPRESSIVE WINNER

SWINDLER (Ed Walker) looked fit as a

flea on this return from a 275-day

break and was bet like a good thing.

He duly obliged under a super confi-

dent ride from Liam Keniry and is a

classy sprinter in the making. He trav-

els like a Group horse and must be

followed.

ASCOT July 13 (good-firm,

good in places)

7f two-year-old novice (Class 3)

ABOVE AVERAGE RACE

BERKSHIRE ROCCO (Andrew Bald-

ing) was absolutely hammered in

the betting but ran green until half-

way and wasn’t knocked about to

run home fourth. There’s every

reason to believe he’ll improve for

the run - he was edgy in the prelims

• and a bold bid is predicted next
  time.

1m4f three-year-old handicap (Class

2)

RED-HOT CONTEST

FAYLAQ (William Haggas) really is a

handsome individual and looked in

tip-top condition. He appeared to

have the race in safe-keeping when

hitting the front at the furlong pole,

but ran green under pressure and was

chinned by Floating Artist. There’s

definitely more to come from Faylaq

and he can develop into a

Listed/Group horse.
