Coordinated Cut Will Take Some Beating Says Fallon

Ballinruan jockey Kieren Fallon expects Coordinated Cut to take some beating in Saturday's Racing Post Trophy at Doncaster after partnering the colt in a recent spin.

Fallon was aboard Peter Chapple-Hyam's juvenile when he made a winning debut over course and distance just over a month ago and the Irishman is expected to get the leg-up again this weekend reports breakingnews.ie. Speaking at Pontefract today, Fallon said: "He won very well at the Leger meeting. I rode him work the other day and he went well. He must have a good chance."

The bookmakers are not quite so sure and in early shows, Coordinated Cut is as big as 6-1 with Ladbrokes and totesport with St Nicholas Abbey the general 9-4 favourite. Aidan O'Brien's unbeaten Montjeu colt has been the name on many people's lips for next year's Derby after winning the Beresford Stakes - a race that featured on Sea The Stars' CV as a two-year-old.
