EW Double thenThe Flying Seagull is out again tomorrow in the opener at Chester, 6.05.
Will probably start favourite, main danger oddly enough is probably Brighton Boy, ridden by Brighton-born Jason Watson, and owned by Brighton-based nature enthusiast Michael Blencowe.
This was a difficult race to assess really. Seagolazo was staying on but was hemmed in by a riderless horse on his outside. Would he have finished closer to the Godolphin 1-2? Probably - but far from convinced he could have beaten them. But stayed on well into third, never nearer than at the line. Could see him stepped up in trip again. (He was well supported in the market. I backed him EW at 6s in the morning but was returned 7/2).Seagolazo is entered over 7f at Haydock on Thursday (4.10).
After a promising debut the step up to 7f should suit. There are two Goldophin runners entered in the race. One a previous winner (carrying 6lb penalty) and the other a newcomer.
What time?Seagulls Eleven is attracting cash, now down to general 7-1 third-favourite.
