Lowther Stakes 2010 - York Ebor Meeting 2011 (Day 2)


2.30 York
Jaguar Cars Lowther Stakes (Fillies' Group 2) (Class 1)  (2YO only)
Winner £61,380

Advice: 1 pt win Angels Will Fall (4/1 general)


Owner detailsBest Terms: Plenty of promise when making a cosy winning debut and making all to beat subsequent winner easily by 2 lengths in 3-runner Newbury minor event; Game winner of Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot, form which has been boosted since; This harder under a penalty but respected considerably with step up in trip sure to suit.

Owner detailsGamilati: Came second in an exceptionally strong maiden which has produced the Albany winner (Samitar, 3rd) the Chesham third (Self Centered, 5th) & a 17 length winner next time (My Propeller, 8th); Pure bad luck to get headed by stablemate and Group 3 winner, making marked improvement when winning Cherry Hinton Stakes with something to spare latest; Should go well.

Owner detailsAfter: Beneficiary of Ryan Moore at his best when wining maiden here and improved effort when finding only speedy Fire Lily too good in the Anglesey Stakes last time; Well beaten in Phoenix Stakes and this no easier.

Owner detailsAngels Will Fall: Well backed before debut, able to quicken out of trouble and win with tons in hand at Windsor before following up in the Princess Marget Stakes, beating rock – sold form stick with loads in hand; Gets weight from 2 main players in this and should go well.

Owner detailsCaledonia Lady: Ran massively above herself when third (fast closing) in the Queen Mary but hasn’t backed that up much since and passed over here.

Owner detailsFire Lily: Slowly away, green early and also unable to get a clear run until later stages when quickening smartly to beat decent pair at Navan on debut; Improved when third in strong Listed event, fourth in Queen Mary; Winner of Group 3 on yielding ground with plenty to spare and can take a big hand.

Owner detailsHello Glory: Shaped really well in a steadily run big – field Newmarket from a poor position having been held up and you couldn’t have been more impressed with her Ascot win; This a different test though.

Owner detailsIntetrobil: Backed like a good thing and won in same style when running out 6 length winner of Redcar maiden despite having dwelt in the stalls; Travelled like one of the best in the race before getting chinned close home by winner on soft ground in Albany but readily held in Cherry Hinton and unlikely she’ll reverse that form.

Owner detailsLady Gorgeous: Ran around just a bit when headed out of things on her racecourse debut and looked a much improved horse when getting there in plenty of time and over turning and odds – on hotpot.  

Owner detailsShumoos: Made most impressive debut seen by a British 2yo this year when spreadeagling Haydock maiden opposition (form rock solid); Beaten by only a short head in Queen Mary, quickening but finding one too good; Again beaten fair and square in Cherry Hinton and might be vulnerable even on 3lbs better terms.

Owner detailsSunday Terms: This a different ball game from when readily landing odds in Goodwood maiden last week but no doubting that place here is fully deserved; Can go well although more needed.

VERDICT: Any one of 6 could be given a winning chance here. The weight that ANGELS WILL FALL gets from Gamilati and Best Terms swings the vote in her direction, although an each/way saver on the last named would not go amiss. Shumoos and Fire Lily should also be thereabouts at the finish.
