Saturday in the UK

Up north at Ayr and down south (or south-west) at Newbury.

RUN BOY RUN winning the Ayr Gold Cup at Ayr in England. Picture: Pat Healy Photography

Not a great day for augmenting the pension fund although it may not have been too bad, especially if you are trainer Richard Spencer and jockey George Wood who took the rare double of both the Silver and the Gold Cups. In the Silver Cup they won with Candy 8/1 and in the Gold Run Boy Run 12/1. We made the error in that race of backing the stablemate Two Tribes as he was not in the money part of the finish. Purosangue firmed in a lot and started favourite but finished fourth.

The G3 Firth of Clyde went to Catching Thunder 15/2 from Lay Yai and Isle of Fernandez was third on 25/1.

At Newbury First Instinct assisted the family fortunes by winning at 8//1 from Shagroan 11/1 and Montassib finished third.

The Mill Reef was difficult to see if you were watching on TV as misty rain made the horses all but invisible until the last furlong when Words of Truth and Into the Sky emerged from the murk and fought out a tight finish with the Godolphin horse finishing up as the winner, which was also helpful for the family fortunes although he started favourite.
