Fly-over and Bomb,attack of the Mercury Sprinters..

2007 and 2008 Mercury Sprint winners War Artist and J J the Jet plane both make
quick reapearances this weekend.J J`s run comes after his lack lustre run
in last weekends Sprint Cup at Haydock,Beaten before halfway Jim Crowley
eased J J down and im sure J J hated to bog like underfoot conditions.
Richard Hannon decided during the week that the run was too bad to be true and
decided to give him a quick return to the track at Goodwood Saturday afternoon.

The race itself won`t take a lot of winning and a repeat of his win at windsor
back in June would be far too good for todays field>>CARD

UK bookies can`t make their minds up how to price him up and rate him between 18/10 and 3/1..


War artist and J J winning the Mercury Sprint


A great card in France on sunday with the Arc trials taking center stage,with the re apearance of
Stacelita sure to excite Scotia and i look forward to an update on his great horses post on monday?

An Aperitif to the Arc trials sees 2007 Mercury Champ War Artist take on 5 rivals
in the Grp3 QATAR PRIX DU PETIT COUVERT over 1000m.
Main rivals will be Benbaun a CD winner who`s front running stlye suits longchamps
1000m shute and the improving Stern Opinion.However a repeat of War Artists
last run at Baden Baden should get him close to front runner Benbaun at the line,just in time for New Jock Peslier to fire his GUNS!!!

cheers hibby enjoy the bookies

18/10 on offer War Artist..

BOOM BOOM BOOM!!!!!!

Well done to the connections

War Artist ran very well and a return for the Abbeye on Arc weekend should be considered on present form.
Although only a small field it was a true run race with the Nunthorpe second Benbaun and Stern opinion setting a scorching pace with
War Artist sitting in third place biding his time.Stern Opinion mastered Benbaun 300m from home and struck for home.
It soon became evident the Peslier had the move covered and produced his mount to cheekily win close home..

Do other sites,just report " intereststing topics" post event to take plaudits?

Why don`t they take an opinion pre?

That is all....
