Masterful

Shun Ishizaki rode with a masterful touch at TCK tonight to guide Beat The Boarder to third place, despite the pair being far from fancied in a strong field. It was a truly superb run, with the horse looking good carrying a few more kilos, and some perfect timing from the jockey. In many ways, tonight's performance was even more impressive than the win they clocked up last time out. Brilliant!

Now we can look forward to Pretty Gully in the heat of Australia on Saturday, with a JRA race for Rush Attack added on Sunday. He runs in the mile opener at Tokyo-Fuchu with fellow Brit, Ryan Moore, in the saddle. As a result, I've got high hopes for both weekend warriors...
