Our new Chairman has one at Wolverhampton on Monday.

5.55 - #7 - The Great Gabrial about 7/2 - First run

`Bought for just 23,000 gns last year but impossible to ignore pedigree being out of a Yorkshire Oaks winner and St Leger runner-up (just second of her foals to make track). Very interesting newcomer.`

Will be interesting to see how it goes. Keep us posted

Has there ever been a horse called Salford City Red ? , or anything similar , if not , there might be soon

The Great Gabrial finishes in 4th.

Salford a better bet than Racing?

I would settle with Salford finishing 4th

It finished 4th out of 9 , in a class 5 maidens race , hardley a future Derby runner.

If only we can can finish half way up the table that'll do for the this year.

There is actually a horse called "Salford City"

Age: 10 Foaled April 20th 2001. Sex: Bay Gelding.
Breeding: Desert Sun - Summer Fashion (Moorstyle)
Trainer: G Elliott Owner: Fergus Galvin & Adam Lord

Is that still in traning? Remember backing it a while back but not seen it on a racecard for a couple of years. The Doc had a runner at Lingfield last Saturday, English Summer IIRC. Had it in a Lucky 31 and finished a close 2nd at 12/1. It has been placed/won a few timesso may be worth following for e/w backers.

Sure I read somewhere that the Doc has had a winner at Grade 2 level so wouldn't be surprised if he managed a classic entry or 2 in the next few years with the track record he's managed to build up in a relatively short period of time.
