Racehorses with City Names

Blue flag flying high has pissed in at 9/4

Just backed that, not because of the name but because it was the best horse in the race, won easy.

Never thought about backing the best horse in any race that had a blue connotation running in it, so thats where I’m going wrong.

Our lad achieved a timeform rating of 108 at the weekend which makes him the top rated 2 year old horse trained in Britain this season! Only 3 from Aidan O'Briens huge Irish yard have ran to a higher rating than the Viking!

Is there any chance he will be in contention for the Guineas or Derby next year?

Or is it too early to tell?

I wouldn't think he'd get a derby trip, but Guineas is a possibility if he keeps on progressing. My gut feeling is he'll end up a sprinter though.

On a side note, the last horse to do the Triple Crown was Nijinsky, in 1970, and the previous time it was done was 35 years before that.

I know that it’s not often that colts enter all three classics nowadays, but it shows what a tremendous feat it is.

Shame it went wrong with City of Troy at Newmarket as I reckon he was very capable of doing it. Probably won't even run in the Leger now.

Betfred putting up a 5 million bonus for anyone who achieves it next year as they will be sponsoring all 5 British classics.
