Shelbourne Ryan returns to form

Walthamstow Report 06 Oct 2007

Saturday's was an all graded card.

All Shaped Up showed very good early pace in the opening P9 and looked set to score. Special Jag improved on his debut and ran the leader down close home. These two pups should do ok.

In the H1, Castleivy Sand, Wol and Blue Meadow Lad battled for supremacy up to the third bend. Blue Meadow Lad grabbed the lead at the 3rd bend and held Wol by a length. Castleivy Sand faded out of contention.

Charlies Dart won a dreadful S2 in slow motion. I'd be surprised if he wins again for a while. Canary Fantasy stayed on late for second.

Early Notice won well on his debut in an interesting A6. Begin To Hope followed him home and these look to be two dogs to keep on the right side of. 

Elusive No Doubt made all in the A5 to win in a decent 28.99. Aero Blackjack ran wide at the last bend, but kept on for second. Journey Time faded on the run in.

Lemon Figo started well and led to the 3/4 before fading in the A4. Flying Fancy took over at this point and went on to score. Tanner Butler returned from a layoff with a decent effort in second. He will not be hanging around in this grade for long.

Killeacle Hobbs showed good EP in the S1, before fading and being caught on the run in. Aranock Sand stayed best and led near the line. Killeacle Hobbs held on for second.

Blue Rizzler produced a very decent run in the A3. He showed dazzling early pace and made all. Show Vision also ran well and held every chance in second.

Mystical Haka made all in the A2. He dug out a bit more on the run in as Lockdale Lady threatened to challenge. Vigorous Whitney may have got a bit closer if avoiding the minor bump at the 3rd bend.

Tiger Scot towed them along in the second S1, but failed to see the trip out strongly. Droopys Boss started very slowly, but stayed on well and led near the line.

Lockdale Duke won the second A2 quite well. After an average break, he paced up well to the bend and made all. Dysert Cara kept on for second, without ever looking like she would get on terms.

Shelbourne Ryan returned to form with a decent effort in the A1. Quickly into his stride, he made all. Julies Protege showed pace down the back and kept on for second. 

Who Needs Wings showed smart early and pulled away from his field in the A1 and looked set for a comfortable victory. However, he swung wide at the last and held on by a short head from Droopys Fabregas who came home well. 

I Dont Clare put in a battling display to win the S2 finale. Genesis Alix led until running very wide at the second bend. Wheres The Girls and Genesis Alix did impede one another once or twice, but they held every chance.
