The Jubilee deserves an early thread

OLD EM - Just look at the LBH - for a 2yr old to be only 3L behind MR 95's i scary considering she could have won by further if anything put her under pressure.

Her time was also quicker than Arabian Beat

If I remember correctly , there was not much confidence in the market?

Backed in from 9-2 to 28-10 but if I recall I think a few were scratched - To get a line Sapsan has beaten Outa My Way consistently(twice) by about 5 lengths - Old Em beat Outa My Way by 9 lengths. Old Em beat A million Dreams by 8 lengths who was 4 lengths behind Pacifica and Shimmering Sea on previous form. That takes care of Shimmering Sea and She's A Dragon(granted her first run she stumbled) as both are within a length of Pacfica on paper. We all know babies can improve week on week but I do think that this filly is decent.

In the Jubilee, at the weights Legal Eagle is an absolute certainty. Lump on albeit the horse is prepping for the July, however without breaking a sweat this horse should win.

If you were the stable would you have a full go or leave the now common 20% to work on ? HMetal and Cagiva could both rocket into the july if they beat him and he would still get in comfortably on rating - Just saying

And Heave Metal will do just that

This is a handicap, so Legal Eagle has no 'advantage' at the weights - also I agree with Mr H won't be 100% and the 1800 is on the sharp side. Horses like Cagiva, Killua Castle and Heavy Metal have to go all out and need to win this in order to have any chance of making the final July field

So imo he could still win, but definitely not an 'absolute certainty'

Stinks of a prep run

2 or 3 others in the race are running for their life !!

Race 3 Gentleman Only 7/1

Ran on extremely well last time.

Should be the horse to beat this time.
