El Beau did the business for us on Sunday at York, and at 20/1(adv) it was a sweet victory indeed. With two winners at 10/1 and 20/1, along with a place at 14/1 it was a good weekend for the blog, and there is an interesting horse at Leicester tomorrow that might be worth investing a little bit of the winnings on.
Sir Roderic, a 2yo gelded son of first season sire Roderic O'Connor trained by Rod Millman, goes in the opening maiden at Leicester. He was sent off at fancy odds on debut at Wndsor, and ran a decent enough race despite obvious greenness to finish 10th. That race has produced a few winners since so the form doesn't look too bad.
His next run also came at Windsor, and it was a huge improvement on his first run. He came home in fourth, beaten less than two lengths for the win, and kept on very well in the final furlong, shaping as if a step up in trip would suit. His pedigree suggests it will suit too (loads of stamina on dam side).
He gets that step up in trip today, and with Freddy Tylicki taking the ride he won't lack for assistance from the saddle. Of Millman's last four runners two have won, and another finished a close 3rd. He is clearly in form at the moment, and Sir Roderic looks way too big a price at 25/1 in what seems to be a very winnable maiden.
