Well I have been quite dubious of the form of the Suroor arm of the Godolphin operation and I think last night was evidence that we need to give them time and monitor the situation. Darley Sun ran ok but just didn’t really find very much and we were on the right one of the two Suroor horses in the Brigadier Gerard Stakes.
However, the way the other horse Sabotage finished was alarming and although our selection Prince Siegfried ran well at a decent price and was denied a run I don’t think he would have got third and again just ran a bit flat in the final furlong. They have had just one winner in the last 2 weeks and that has to be a concern. As most of you will know by now, we have excellent contacts at Godolphin but for now we will have to hold back and wait for some positive signs. I would urge you all to treat any Suroor horses with caution.
