Richard Fahey talks us through his runners at York and Newmarket on Friday and Saturday including the in-form Show Me Show Me.
I was delighted with Midnight Mile's win in the Oh So Sharp Stakes at Newmarket on Friday.
She's been a big price on both starts but she's pretty smart and we thought she'd run well both times. We'll see how she comes out of the race but I'd imagine that would be it for the year although the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf might be a consideration potentially.
She's exciting and will make a lovely three-year-old. She has a fantastic pedigree and she'll definitely be given a 1000 Guineas entry. A trial looks a good starting point at this stage.
I thought he was a bit unlucky at Chester, he just got stopped in vital parts of the race. He’s quite a big backward sort of a horse, so I just hope I’m not running him back too quickly. I’m taking a bit of a chance in that regard but the ground and trip should suit him well so fingers crossed he runs a race.
It was a good solid run in the Mill Reef at Newbury where he was second to Sakheer. I know the winner beat him well but he had some good horses in behind him and if he brings that form to the table I’m sure he’d have a chance.
He came back into form when winning at Wolverhampton, he had been a bit unlucky this year but he bounced right back the other day. He has won on soft ground and if he runs as well as he did last week he has a chance.
We’ve been wanting a bit of rain for Admiral D and it looks like we’ve finally got it. I just hope we haven't worn him out as he's been busy enough. He’s in great order at home and he seems happy, so fingers crossed things go right for him. Six furlongs on soft is what he wants, he’s down a pound from Ayr where he ran well and he’s another with a chance, I just hope things fall right for him.
I’d be a little bit surprised if he could win a York maiden first time up, he’s a stayer in the making and he seems to have a good attitude, so fingers crossed he runs well.
He’s in and out, I’m a little bit worried about the slower ground, too, as his best form is on better ground. But we’ll let him take his chance and see what happens.
She steps in trip to 10 furlongs here and she’s bred to stay. She's a filly I’ve always liked and she hasn’t really got to where we thought she'd be. If we can get her to relax and come home she'll run well.
