1000 Guineas Day

A beautiful spring morning and the lovely fillies take centre stage at Newmarket today.
I of course have been waiting for Memory to take her chance in the 1000 Guineas since backing he in August of last year. I still feel she is the best filly in the race, you can forget the run at the Curragh, and she should prove it this afternoon.
I put Tell Dad on the Flat Notebook page after his debut run at the Craven meeting and a big run is expected from the two-year-old today in the 4.25. Considerable improvement can be expected on that first outing and I would assume that all being well after a victory here today a trip to Royal Ascot awaits.
In the lucky last at 5.35 we have Barbican. The gelding won his Maiden at Wolverhampton on the sand and won on his handicap debut at Doncaster before being given a chance at Group level were he finished fourth in the Group Three classic trial at Sandown. Back in handicap company today, and ahead of the handicapper as he is due o rise 8lb in the weights, he is worth an investment.
Be lucky
