7.00 Doncaster Adelasia 5pts win @ 5/1 (William Hill. guaranteed, 9/2 generally guaranteed) - WON
A really interesting fillies maiden. Most of these I wasn't keen on, including the favourite Lashkaal who looked a little laboured on debut. However, I thought Adelasia got the message late on her debut over this course and distance, and she might be able to improve enough this evening. She was held up in rear and appeared to be very green first time out, looking around her and unsure how to use her stride. Her jockey had all but given up when she picked up late, and she appeared to learn how to pass horses, which is the crucial part of any juvenile's debut, as the line approached. I was unsure whether there was a bit of temperament there: she threw her head around after the line and I can't be sure if she wanted to go further or was simply being a bit of a madam. I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt, because she is a really good actioned filly and a superb mover on this fast ground. If she has learned to put it all together, she should take a bit of beating, and at the prices she makes much more appeal than the favourite. Charlie Appleby's stable are no in very good form and there is no reason she shouldn't improve a stone and upwards from that debut.
Profit & loss: day: +22.50 / month: +25.80 / year: +323.10
