Noirs Heart burns
up the track
Walthamstow Report
14 Apr 2007
An ordinary graded card.
The first race was an A9. Remember
Bill led early, before Ask
Dont Tell led at the second bend after a modest start. Ask
Dont Tell went wide and faded from the 4th bend. Remember
Bill led again between the last two turns until Mix
Em Up stayed on and led near the line. Mix
Em Up landed a gamble having been backed in from 4/1 to 9/4.
Ronnies
Callum went off a short price in the hurdles H1 despite being
absent since October of last year. He broke quickly and led until
tiring between the last two bends. He did not look too sound. Four
Minutes ran on and took up the running at this point before
being joined on the line by Too
Much Trouble. They do love a dead heat at the Stow.
Twilight
Fantasy went middle and ran into Wise
Shakira at the start of the A8. Call
Again made all the running and dwelt at the 3rd bend as Twilight
Fantasy came to challenge him. Neither looked to be putting it
down and Call
Again came out on top.
Box
Of Tricks made all to land the S3. He ran wide at all the bends,
but still had enough in hand to land the race. Time
Connection was one pace from the last bend and finished
second.
Lockdale
Duke broke smartly and made the early running in the A7. He
faded and was caught on the run in and Annes
Sammy grabbed the lead near the line. Marathon
Girl stayed on and went down by a short head in second.
Lizzies
Angel followed up her previous win when making all in the A6. Lizzies
Angel was 9/19 A2 at Oxford before coming to the Stow and has
taken a while to reproduce form anywhere near that standard. Zu
Yi showed some early pace after a modest start and kept on for
second. Droopys
Hepburn was returning Ex lame, but still checked at the 3rd bend
and ran poorly.
True
Frankie led to the 3rd bend in the S2, before Be
Wise Lady took up at running. Be
Wise Lady and True
Frankie dominated the race and Be
Wise Lady came out on top.
True
Kewell broke smartly before losing the plot at half way. Jim
The Butcher took up the invitation and held off Fall
In Line, who stayed on for second. The favourite Droopys
Top Lad went wide and hammered into Ardmayle
Machine at the start. Ardmayle
Machine was also crowded at the second bend, but ran well
afterwards. He is one to consider next time.
Kingfisher
Daisy made all in the A4. Larkhill
Jackie kept on ok for second.
Shelbourne
Thesa won the modest S1, leading from the second bend after a
decent start. Pennys
Britney kept on for second after suffering a bit of trouble. Droopys
Kan Kan was disappointing.
Clonbrin
Ted produced a decent start in the A3, but he's a short runner
and Sligo
Next, who had suffered trouble at the 2nd bend, finished with a
real flourish to lead on the line.
Noirs
Heart was an impressive winner of the A2 event. He was quick
away and made all in a fast 28.74. Monte
Alban stumbled at the 3rd bend, but kept on for second. Reverse
Pace checked at the 3rd bend in behind.
Denwood
Star broke very well in the A1, but could not hold the strong
finishing Shelbourne
Ryan. Directors
Tale couldn't go the early pace and was crowded at the second
bend.
Granary
Smurf started well and made the running in the closing S3. His
stamina gave way between the last two bends and Glengar
Royal stayed on to lead at this point. I
Mean That stayed on for second after a poor start.
