Thursday´s Stable Tour Quotes From At The Races Quotes from www.attheraces.com3.25 SANDOWN BLUE TROJAN Sylvester Kirk says: “He had top weight but it was a bad draw which beat him at Chepstow which was very frustrating. I’d given him a hard time so he’s had a small break since Newbury when he was eleventh of eighteen to Everest in mid-July but he’s coming back well. It’s in the back of my mind to try him again over ten furlongs and I’ll do it before the end of the year – there are a lot more opportunities. He’s best on fast ground.”4.35 SANDOWN CONSIDINE James Eustace says: “If I had ten like him and Welcome Stranger I wouldn’t need anything else – they’re as tough as old boots. He hardly runs a bad race. His last run was excellent and the horse he beat, Peak Of Perfection has a great chance in the Melrose Handicap at York. I think he might be getting a bit quicker as he gets older.”6.45 CHEPSTOW GAVIOLI Milton Bradley says: 'I wouldn´t really call him headstrong and, while he did hang across the course one day at Salisbury, I think that was just because he wanted to get over to race with other horses. I think we can find him a few chances.'7.15 CHEPSTOW JOHANNIAN Milton Bradley says: 'I think a mile is probably his best trip, even though he seems to stay a bit farther, and ideally he wants good ground or slightly firmer. He likes to be held up just behind the leaders and to get a nice tow in a good, strong, truly-run race. What´s definitely against him is a muddling gallop and he´s never entirely happy when then go slow early on and then quicken things up in the closing stages.'8.15 CHEPSTOW FLEET ANCHOR Milton Bradley says: 'I´m sure he can win races for us. He wouldn´t want the ground too firm and I doubt that he´d stay any farther than six furlongs. He´s quite a nice horse, but hasn´t really started to fulfil his potential.'5.20 SALISBURY FLY MORE Milton Bradley says: 'He had a slight setback early on this season, and then got an infection. The races he has won so far weren´t great, possibly no better than moderate really, but Fly More acts on any ground and is equally good at five or six furlongs.' CURRENCY Milton Bradley says: 'He split a pastern last year and it seems to have daunted him a little bit. He has run some fair races, but hasn´t shown quite as much as before and probably needs to drop a pound or two before he can win again, as, for what he´s achieved, he is quite high in the weights. He can´t handle soft ground.'
