1000 Guineas 2021

Have had a look through the race

I want to take on the top 3

Santa Barbara is too short and I dont think either of sacred or alcohol free will stay

So iv had 2 small win bets on Saffron beach and Fev Rover at 12.5 and 16.5 respectively just for a bit of interest

Saffron beach got done for a turn of foot in her trial race and was closing on sacred at the line, id be dissapointed if that form wasn’t reversed

Fev Rover has some solid looking form too and was denied a clear run in France. She has run well at the track and goes on any ground.

she cosily beat Dubai fountain who was only beaten 2 lengths in the fillies mile and looked like shed relish a mile

Fahey seems quite bullish in his sporting Life column about Fev, which is unlike him.

I've always struggled with his horses, can probably count on one hand the amount of Fahey winners I've had in my life......

Same hes far from my favourite trainer but she looks to have every chance to me

That dubai fountain was basically the 2yo fillies yardstick

Beat her and youve got a good filly

Fev rover looked to be crying out for the mile that day at sandown too, she was skipping across the gd to firm ground at the end

Going to go with alcohol free and fev rover.

I know there are doubts for alcohol free getting one mile but I'll chance that she'll come on for the run.

Agree with FF above about Fev
 
IAlcohol Free and Sacred had close wins against Statement and Saffron Beach.
Fev Rover showed a good attitude to beat Plainchant (twice a winner since) at Deauville
Vadream was a running on 3rd from a long way back in the Fred Darling

Looking for value I'm going for Sacred, Statement, Fev Rover and Vadream
 
Shale or indigo girl wouldve won that

I'm convinced of it

Fev rover was definitely the wrong price though, both her and Saffron beach ran gallant races

And pretty gorgeous probably too

The fillies mile was the key form but the best horses in it never turned up

Fantastic Fox was who 3rd to Snow Lantern runs today, should win and the form will look good.

I find it hard to see why Mother Earth won that apart from an Aidan sleight of hand - big up your horse with one win and keep the other one quiet but put Dettori on it.
The only argument for me is the Breeder's Cup 2nd but that reasoning failed spectacularly for Battleground (a different race though) and the horse that beat ME there has since failed badly at odds on. The other race is the 3rd in the fillies mile but that was on soft and the others involved in the finish haven't run since.

I like Fev Rover for the future but it may well not be such a big price again.
 
She had some very solid 2yo form behind pretty gorgeous, indigo girl and shale

None of them turned up on the day so it was actually a weaker race than the debutante stakes, moyglare or fillies mile

You can see how she won it was just hard to fancy her

She doesnt win very often and being by zoffany wasnt guaranteed to have trained on that well from 2 to 3

I wonder how donnacha felt watching that, it'll be sods law now that the rain will come and shale won't have any chance in the Irish guineas having skiped the gd ground available at newmarket
