The Laurels was over for me (from a financial point of view) within a couple of strides with Prodigious going to sleep in the boxes and Centaur Marine being beaten to the punch by Farley Magic.
Barry Draper landed a one-two with Boherna Best and Farley Magic, his well fancied Boherna On Air never really getting into things.
The winner is only an August 06 whelp with 15 races under his belt so could well go on to add to the nice prize he picked up on Tuesday. He is a lovely looking blue and white son of the sadly deceased Pacific Mile out of Always On Air. The breeding was a repeat mating with the previous litter throwing Barnfield On Air.
Here's a couple of photo's I took of the winner on the night -
It was a pretty miserable night in Manchester weather wise but the racing was good with Bubbly Totti very impressive in taking his prep race for the St Leger. We also had a good chat with the amenable Gary Wiltshire from the Sky team. All in all it was an excellent night and I have no hesitation in recommending a night at "The Zoo".
nice snaps!
