My Arch came in a respectable eighth of the 32 runners in the Cearewitch; well done to the Racing Post's Pricewise who tipped the winner Aaim To Prosper (16/1).<br /><br />Something of a turn up in the Sportingbet.com Hurdle with Clerk's Choice winning as he pleased at odds of 14/1. Selection Barizan (6/4f) set off in front as is his style but on his seasonal debut the hurdling was far from perfect, particularly down the back; a poor leap at the final obstacle allowed Royal Mix to go on and claim second spot.<br /><br />With the withdrawal of Ian Williams' Wayward Prince, Picture This was sent off ridiculously short (6/5f). He made a mistake at the seventh and had no answer to Chicago Grey (13/2) who was also far from foot perfect. Hell's Bay (14/1) finished fifth. He made a couple of errors but was disputing second until weakening between the final two flights; he didn't look to quite get the trip here.<br /><br />Aiteen Thirtythree (even money) took the spoils even though headed by Supercede (9/1) after the last. I'm sure connections will feel this big horse will make a better chaser. A mistake four from home by Pure Anticpation (12/1) put paid to her chance - she came home a poor fourth.<br /><br />In the bumper Let's Get Serious was allowed to go off at 4/1 and showed a nice turn of foot to beat 2/1 joint favourites Dark Lover and Sybarite. Sir Benfro was a non-runner.GeeDeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09834633278297488704noreply@blogger.com
