Oaks Day Review

Bit of a rollercoaster again today. I was disappointed with Timepiece, it looked like she was setting a fair gallop to my eye in the early stages and she duly ended up going out like a light when the pressure came.
St Nicholas Abbey on the other hand was quite brilliant. Totally off balance round the turn and then having the door firmly shut in his face by Tom Queally on Midday (fairly it most be said) Ryan Moore got him balanced, pointed him at the line and boy did he run to it and was in fact going away at the finish.
As for Havant, she never really seemed to get going and finished a fair way behind the impressive Dancing Rain, under a good ride from Johnny Murtagh, who kept on gamely to deny Wonder Of Wonders.
