Silent Note = Bum Note

Breathing Fire once again proved his dislike for winning when caught close home by Bullhill Flyer, and it's hard to envisage Breathing Fire winning another race if this is anything to go by.

Bullhill Flyer, to his credit had been showing himself in good heart with winning 2 handicap hurdles, and finishing 2nd lto, but he was coming here off a mark in the low 90s, so it's not surprising to see him go off at 33/1.

You Sir tried to make all and was given an easy time up top, but once again folded relatively quickly once coming into the straight, and is certainly one to continue to bet against.

Silent Oscar has previously shown his ability to handle soft conditions, but he seemed to be treading water 2 out, but he did pull hard due to the slack pace on offer, and this may have caused him to empty out realtively well and not go on form a promising position entering the home straight. A return to two miles on better ground should see him return to winning ways, but this was a below par effort .
