For commercial breeders, however, that famous military maxim is becoming ever less practicable. Rather PIPELINE than hold their nerve, they rush nervously from one new stallion to the next, few daring to stick around long enough to take a yearling to market once a first crop has actually been exposed to the racetrack. These cycles often become self-fulfilling, in that few stallions can seize so limited an opportunity in time to maintain adequate momentum.

  • Epsom Derby & Oaks
    Marten Julian’s Epsom Derby & Oaks ONLINE PREVIEW Friday 5 June The Investec Oaks (1m 4f) (4.30) Writing this on Thursday I am assuming the ground will be riding good for the start of the meeting. The going was on the soft side earlier in the week, but temperatures are set to rise and conditions could be quick by Friday unless the forecast thunderstorms hit the course. If they do, then they could bring up to 5mm of rain, which would ease the ground to good to soft, if not softer. There is nothing more frustrating in an analysis of form than a late change in ground conditions, so this uncertainty has to be factored into my preview. Visually the most impressive performance I have seen has come from Crystal Zvezda when she won a Listed trial stakes at Newbury in May. Rated just 78 at the time, on the strength of her maiden win at Lingfield in October, she beat the 98-rated Montalcino going away by three and a half lengths, with 90-rated Pamona half a length back in third. On figures she ran to a mark of around 103, 4lb lower than her new mark of 107. Crystal Zvezda won the race in the manner of a very talented filly. Last in the early stages and still with a wall of horses in front of her a quarter of a mile from home, she was switched approaching the final furlong and in just a couple of strides went clear of her rivals to win with loads in hand.

PLEGASTELL - Supplemented for this. Daughter of Planteur and has won both her outings at Saint Malo and latterly a Listed event at Craon after missing the break. Respected longshot. 2. FEE HISTORIQUE - Remains a maiden after four runs. Runner up in the middle two of those but only seventh here on her latest start. Would seem to have absolutely zero chance today and is a candidate for last. 3. MARIETA - Daughter of Siyouni has three starts. Runner up on debut at Maisons Laffitte before going back there to win. Big step up second in Gr2 at Deauville in August. Big shout. 4. NUNZIA - Was successful on debut at Marseille Borely in July. Runner up next time in a Listed at Vichy the following month. Fifth in bunch finish behind Savarin last time so more required. 5. BIONIC WOMAN - Promising runner up on debut at Deauville in August before a smooth victory last time out at Saint Cloud. This a big step up in class but trained by Andre Fabre, an absolute legend of the game. 6. FLIGHTY LADY - A debut third here in July which was followed by a win at Deauville the following month. Back here in September to finish third in a Gr3 behind Savarin in a tight enough finish. 7. KENLOVA - Won on debut at Chantilly back in May. Ran only in Gr3 events since. Finished third in the first two of those before close sixth behind Savarin here last time.
