2019 PETER YOUNG STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Trap For Fools the likely leader and there will be a number who can post up behind.

AVILIUS won FU here at G3 level as the market expected and the extra trip suits. Not sure if the rail does but he gets Bowman to do the organising and expect him manage. Only has to hold the form to be winning.

NIGHT'S WATCH will sit midfield and was good placing here behind the above in the same race. He has more up the sleeve and no surprise if he gets closer today.

D'ARGENTO is up to this at best and will be better for the FU run in the G2 behind Manuel. Will likely push forward and sit handy and the 2U record reads well.

SHILLELAGH disappointed FU in the same race but may have had excuses. The market said he’d need it anyway and sharp improvement wouldn’t surprise with Oliver going on.

Carlton Draught Peter Young (G2)

Type: OPEN

Avilius is building an imposing record, now winning eight of 15 starts and unbeaten in two starts since resuming this preparation. He settled nicely for Hugh Bowman in fifth place, improved behind runners nearing the home turn, took a spit at the 200m, hit the front at the 100m and went on to score comfortably in a smart performance by horse and rider. Trap For Fools went to the front, set quite a good tempo and then fought back particularly well in the straight for a very good second at his second run this preparation. Ace High raced in sixth place, one off the rails, moved up (deep) at the home turn and kept battling well for a third in a nice effort at his second run back. Night's Watch settled back in ninth place, improved behind runners on straightening and kept finishing on well for (3.2 lengths) fourth, also when having his second run back.
