Bank Holiday is very interesting tonight, this horses sire (RULE OF THE WORLD or122) won the Epsom derby 1m4f. The shortest race RULER OF THE WORLD competed in was 1m2f so to actually put any of his offspring in a 6f race and expect them to be involved in the finish is laughable. Fahy knows this and runs him in three races where he has no chance, to get him handicapped.
Job done, horse runs in his first handicap rated 58 plus the claimer taking a further 3LB off.
Jockey has a 13% win strike rate at the track and a 30% place strike rate. He has had 6 winners from 46 rides producing a P&L of €43.00 and a further 7 places.
Here is what Timeform have to say about the extra distance/trip tonight
Significantly up in trip for this handicap debut and likely to progress for it.
Trainer has a 10% strike rate at the track, ok you won’t get rich but he is +€4.05 for the last 12 months.
Great reasoning and selection. Unlucky, but well done on the place. Might be worth backing it again next time, unlikely to be same kind of price though.
