Group and Listed Action . . .
We have three travelling North West to Haydock Park today . . . GOLDREAM and ENCORE D’OR will line up for the Group 2, Temple Stakes over 5 furlongs at 4.05pm – However this is weather dependant for them both. They are both fast ground horses and only produce their best when it is quick . The ground is officially Firm, Good to Firm in places at the moment and the weather has so far remained fair BUT there are the risk of thundery showers due. We are all praying these miss and they will be in action this afternoon. If the rain hits and the ground goes Good or softer they will remain un-tacked and will be withdrawn . . . On the flip side of the coin EVIL SPELL is due to race in the 4.35pm, Cecil Frail Stakes, this is a Fillies only listed event over 6 furlongs. This filly will relish cut in the going. Provided she get this she will run and this type of race is well within her grasp. If the rain stays clear of Haydock today she will return home unraced . . . Typical British weather, so unpredictable until the very last moment!!! We will make decisions in a couple of hours time . . . FINGERS CROSSED!!!!
