Lamato but missed the best prices 9/2
Regards Limato I can"t think of to many four year olds winning a Lockinge having mainly campaigned as a sprinter at three years old. Plus he"s never raced over a mile and he"s running with no prep, big ask/training miracle required imo for Mr Candy to win with Limato today.
Other contenders -
Kodi Bear has won a group2 mile but on a sharp track and bombed out at Ascot nto at his maiden attempt of a group 1. First time out today I"m willing to take him on.
Endless Drama was second in a poor Irish Guineas half a length ahead of Ivawood, I"ll take him on.
Belardo is a 7f horse imo who"s rather overrated by the official handicapper for his proximity to Solow. Added to that James Doyle jumps ship to Toormore after Sandown lto.
Dutch Connection 2nd in the Prix Jean Prat with Kodi Bear well beat but has been beat by Toormore over 7 and 8f has a fighting chance with Buick in the saddlle.
Mahsoob to short odds wise and surely to sharp distance wise.
Gm Hopkins is out of his depth.
Arod third last year may not improve on that given the ground being on the soft side of good, tempting each way poke though.
Euro Charline has a good jockey aboard and a sex allowance but I"d be doubtful of her relishing the slower ground conditions to Meydan.
Toormore for me, decent group 1 form, 2nd last year from a wide stall having to come across forfeiting ground to Night of Thunder. Plus this years four year olds need to improve significantly imo. All in all reliable in form trainer with a good record in this race, consistent horse with a good jockey.
Good luck today Wayne and anyone else having a punt today.
