A couple of things I picked up on today:
1. Jim Crowley picked what seemed to be the least fancied of 3 Hamdan Al Maktoum runners in the first race today, ahead of a horse (Daarik) that had run recently and looked progressive, and it won nicely. Tomorrow he seems to have picked Alrajaa ahead of Montatham (who was impressive at Newmarket) and last years winner, Afaak. I’ve already backed Lord Tennyson for this but I was kicking myself for not trusting Crowley’s selection today and I’m not going to make the same mistake twice.
2. A more obvious one, Pyledriver, won well today I thought. A nice boost to the chances of Berlin Tango tomorrow?
