N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted February 6, 2018 John Sargent has a very nice 2yo colt - Royal Witness - having his first start in R1 at Randwick tomorrow. Currently paying $2.45 on fixed odds so you won't get rich but looks like a very nice colt. Check out his latest trial - ran 3rd, only a head behind Chris Waller's Performer who won at the weekend and is on the second line of betting for the Slipper. Performer was ridden up a bit to win that trial while Royal Witness was hardly touched in the home straight. First trial was back at the end of October and went straight to the front and ran them ragged. Nicely drawn and a top jockey aboard. Godolphin colt (2nd favourite) ran second in a trial on the same day in a quicker time but it was also ridden up a bit and the horse that beat it in that trial did nothing in its first raceday start.

N1MUE 1,877 Report post Posted February 20, 2018 Good question. I don't know what to make of the last run. Impeded at the 100m mark but wasn't going to run in the first three anyway. Didn't have an overly tough run. Will be better for the experience so I'll give it one more chance, but with a smaller wager (at longer odds). Danzie a nice horse in Race 4. Ran a close 3rd despite being 2nd up and racing three wide the entire trip last time. His mum (Zarzuela) was a nice filly - won three group races in a row here during our 09/10 season.
