York Ebor Festival --Day One

The going at York is Good, Good to Firm in places. Dry early and showers due mid afternoon. It may be closer to Good to Firm all over by the time racing begins and until the rain arrives.

Race 1
Fiercely competitive 5 furlong handicap and a very good race to kick the meeting off. This will be fast and furious but despite the certain hot pace it's an on pacer that I want to be with.This is a fast 5 furlongs and leaders take some reeling in here on fast ground. The 3-y-old locally trained See The Sun appeals here dropping back a furlong and drawn close to the stands rail. He won the hot 3-y-old sprint here in June and then ran a huge race against older horses last time. He stays 6 furlongs but the way he went last time suggests that 5 furlongs will suit better and at around 10.0 is worth a bet.

Advised Bet: See The Sun 0.65 units at 9.0 or better-I think this will be strong in the betting so I'm on already

That's the only early bet today but there may be more via Twitter during racing.
