Equinties - battle of the giants

Gm Equinauts

Late newsletter today, apologies, we’ve been moving horses!

Yesterday’s bets were a let down. We had waited a long time for that Balding horse, has huge ability… is a monster, really and when they have him right, he’ll be winning big races and we'll be collecting.

DECEIVER 16/1 third is the best we had yesterday, follow him he’s nice.

Before we dive in, UK MEDS have BIG news. They’ve won a deal to distribute the famous ‘fat loss jab’, OZEMPIC, which Elon Musk has revealed as the reason for his huge weight loss.

Other big names like Charles Barkley and Oprah have been open about their adoption of it too and obviously since Oprah said she was a fan, it’s been constantly out of stock worldwide.

UKMEDS have it though… So if you’re struggling with your weight, use discount link below.

Now, let’s dive in.

WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT?

Approved by the NHS and used by celebrities, OZEMPIC is all the rage.

‘A third of all people who use OZEMPIC for weight loss will lose 10% or more of their bodyweight’ - google said that.

It’s pretty much out of stock everywhere but our sponsor UK MEDS has it… use the link below and our discount code EQUINTIES50 to get £50 off.

All customers will get FREE delivery too.

Remember, EQUINTIES50 for £50 off all orders.

HEADLINE ROUNDUP

TOE TO TOE

Tuesday at the Tattersalls October Yearlings Sale may have been for Godolphin, but Wednesday went the way of Coolmore as MV Magnier swooped in for five Lots at BIG prices.

The crème de la crème of these purchases was Lot 266, a FRANKEL colt out of Anthony Oppenheimer’s BIZZARRIA, who sold for 2,000,000gns.

Although the dam hasn’t produced anything of note from her two horses to hit the track, she is a full sister to the Grade 1-winning CANNOCK CHASE and is also a half-sister to the three-time Group 1 and Irish Oaks-winning STAR CATCHER.

Magnier also splashed 850,000gns on a LOPE DE VEGA colt out of CURSORY GLANCE, a Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes winner on her final start as a two-year-old. He is a half to Listed winner TINKER TOY as well as VOODOO QUEEN, Roger Varian’s 2023 Listed Pontefract Castle Fillies’ Stakes winner.

As for Godolphin, they also parted way with seven figures of cash at Park Paddocks to secure the BLUE POINT half-brother to BATTAASH from Ballyphilip Stud. The regally bred colt is also a half to Aidan O’Brien’s THE ANTARCTIC and seems worth every penny based on his pedigree.

PIPELINE

Sticking with Coolmore, an ex-inmate of theirs made a winning start to his hurdling career yesterday as WORDSWORTH won cosily for David Pipe.

Having placed in two Group 1s on the Flat in 2021, the full-brother to St Leger winner KEW GARDENS justified his odds-on status under Jack Tudor to win the two-mile maiden hurdle at Bangor.

Despite this run over hurdles yesterday, Pipe has a big target in mind back on the Flat for his 43,000gns purchase as he said: "Hopefully he'll come out of the race fine as Caroline [Tisdall, owner] loves the Cesarewitch. He's got top weight, so we'll be looking to claim off him and hopefully he can go there and run well."

He is a general 16/1 shot for the big Newmarket handicap.

BIG WORDS BIG PRICE

12 months on from his purchase in Book 1 of the October Yearling Sales at Newmarket, Aidan O’Brien’s 1.9 million guineas purchase EUPHORIC got off the mark at Navan yesterday.

The FRANKEL colt is out of the useful PIVOTAL mare BLUE WALTZ and defied a market drift from 5/4 to 15/8 to win by a short head.

Ordinarily, a performance like this wouldn’t be too worthy of a mention, however, jockey Seamie Heffernan was glowing with the debut performance as he said he could be a Derby-type horse in time with “plenty of class”.
