Fantastic Fazza

A good Monday, with a cracking 5/1 winner which was never in any doubt.

It could have been better though, with our other selection beaten half a length in 2nd at 6/1.

We had:

TIME COURSE SELECTION 1pt/2pt win Bookmaker(s) / Price(s)

2.45 Carl Fazza 1pt 5-1 W Hill, Lads, B365 BOG

3.45 Carl Mullglen 1pt 6-1 general BOG

Fazza went off a nicely supported 7/2, and broke well, raced prominently, and powered into the lead a couple of furlongs from home and never looked back, winning by more than a length. If only it was always that easy!

Mullglen ran a big race too, and just failed. He traded as short as 1.13 as he took it up a furlong or so from home. His rider dropped his whip just as he took the lead, which probably wouldn't have helped but in fairness the winner Doc Hay would have been very unlucky as he was caught up in all sorts of traffic problems before getting into the clear and quickened to lead in the last 100yds.

Confirmation of results with prices (advised --- SP):

Fazza, 1st/13, 5/1 --- 7/2

Mullglen, 2nd/10, 6/1 --- 6/1

So four points added to the pot, nothing too explosive but very nice to start the working week off well.
