Kakatosi 3rd at Ascot

On a day when we broke our Ascot duck we thought Kakatosi had a chance to make it a second win on the day but it wasn't to be as he achieved a very creditable 3rd place. Under jockey, Pat Dobbs, we set out to be positive on the horse and with no pace in the race Kakatosi was sent to the front. He galloped all the way but again found a couple of horses too good for him on the day. He is the most honest and consistent of horses and it would have been great if he could have held on for the win. However, his consistency has resulted in little leniency from the handicapper and so he continues to find one or two horses better handicapped than him.
The photos are of the good looking Kakatosi in the 3rd place spot with connections, Robert and Bill Tillett, and his regular rider Heidi.
