Performance ratings and Top of the Form

Top of the Form

Here are the chart qualifiers for Monday 20 July:

2.30 Ayr, Calypso Girl
3.30 Ayr, Another Luke
5.45 Yarmouth, Jelly Mo
7.20 Windsor, Pepi Royal
7.50 Windsor, Miss Hollybell
8.20 Windsor, Gold Express
8.50 Windsor, Hatch A Plan

And here are several races currently outside the Top 20:

9 June Salisbury 1m4f Handicap won by Yonder –
3 wins from 9 runs

17 June Kempton 1m2f Handicap won by Buddy Holly –
3 wins from 10 runs

18 June Ffos Las 2m Novices’ Chase won by Danehill Willy –
2 wins from 8 runs

18 June Royal Ascot 1m4f King George V Handicap won by
Cosmic Sun – 3 wins from 10 runs

24 June Salisbury 5f Maiden won by Swan Wings –
2 wins from 4 runs

27 June Lingfield 7f Handicap won by All For You –
2 wins from 8 runs

29 June Windsor 6f Maiden won by Maverin –
2 wins from 3 runs

A note also about a race that was omitted from the chart a few weeks ago won by Jimwil at Redcar on June 9 (the race was omitted as all the top half of the field had reappeared). This event has continued to thrive and now boasts a crisp subsequent record of eight victories from 20 runs.
Here is a close-up of the race along with subsequent results:

9 June Redcar 7f Handicap

1. Jimwil – 5th, 4th
2. Mo Mhuirnin – Won, Won, 2nd
3. Dean Iarracht – 4th, 7th
4. Honimiere – Won, 3rd
5. Secret City - Won
6. Mister Tinktastic – Won, Won, 3rd
7. Seldom – 10th
8. Nino Zachetti – 6th
9. Elusive Fame – 11th, Won
10. Hel’s Angel – Won, 6th
11. Allformary
12. Auld Arty – 7th
13. Dillenda
14. Soviet Rhythm
15. Dark Velvet

I napped Jimwil in the RFO last week when he flopped at Warwick, but I noticed in a recent interview on the Attheraces website that trainer Michael Dods stated the horse could win again on a straight track.
