Was on the 6 too Wanderer - can't win 'em all Back to proper sport now
Irish 1000 Guineas/Epsom Oaks
Termagant - Been waiting for some time to see this filly of Kevin Prendergast's return to the track, she's an unbeaten (2/2) daughter of fast ground specialist Powerscourt who made her debut in a hot looking fillies race at Leopardstown when easily beating Coolmore's useful filly Cabaret by 2 lengths. Stepped up in grade and relatively unconsidered at 16/1 she took the premier Juvenile Fillies race in Ireland the Moyglare Stud Stakes by 2 1/2 lengths on rain softened ground. The form of the last named race is working out very well with the beaten horses including 1000 Guineas placer Gile Na Greine and Musidora Stakes runner-up Gold Bubbles both from the stable of Jim Bolger. Prendergast thinks that Termagant will be better on a sounder surface and will be using this as a prep for the Epsom Oaks - she looks to have a touch of class to my eye and can do the same double accomplished by Aidan O'Brien's crack filly Imagine earlier this decade.
Advice: 1000 Guineas - 2pts Win 1pt Place @ 9/1 (Bet 365, William Hill, Ladbrokes)
Epsom Oaks - 3pts Win 1pt Place @ 20/1 (Betfred, Sportingbet, William Hill, Coral)
