GYTO Saturday Notebook Double

That second in the Galtres Stakes at York from TIME LOCK is a standout piece of form and if she strips fitter from that Goodwood reappearance she will be extremely hard to beat in this. She has only had a handful of starts and this daughter of Frankel should have a lot more to offer yet. She holds another Group entry in Ireland next week so it will be interesting to see if she takes up that engagement if she does win this. Modaara impressed winning by a street at Kempton on return and if she keeps improving she is the obvious danger but strictly on the clock she has plenty to find at this stage of her career with the selection. Mimikyu was a game second in the Bronte Cup at York and I do like the winner River Of Stars so she is another one that should get competitive.

There are some nice types lining up for this but FUSTERLANDIA could easily turn out to be the best of them. This colt by Mehmas ran a cracker to get within a neck of success on debut at Leicester and with the front pair clear he won’t need much more improvement to go one better now. He showed serious speed that day so the drop back to 5f looks ideal and I’ll be surprised if he is beaten here. Havana Grey colt Cuban Slide romped home by 9 lengths on debut but the time wasn’t great and 2 of the 3 rivals have been soundly beaten since which is enough to put me off in a better race here. Room Service and Bombay Bazaar both won on their lasts starts so also deserve respect with the latter probably feared most as that form at this track isn’t working out too badly.
