*** PLEASE NOTE *** ROXHOLME JIM, one of the leading fancies for the competition, was withdrawn off-colour from the Coral Coronation Cup at 11.08am on Friday morning leaving trap two vacant in tonight's opening semi-final at Romford.
Mark Keightley, assistant to trainer wife Hayley, said: “He was fine all week but off his food this morning and it's just not something you can take a chance with especially as the distance is at the top end of his range anyway.” |

Cracking Coronation final ahead next Friday
SPARTA MASTER, the track record holder, was quickest for the second round running as he turned Friday’s third semi-final of the Coral Coronation Cup over 575m at Romford into a procession.
Sharon Thompson’s charge broke well and it was all over bar the shouting when he went round in front, writes Jonathan Kay
of the Racing Post......
Galloping on powerfully, he pulled right away and came home seven and a half lengths to the good of Maythistlecrack in 34.74sec.
Ernie Gaskin landed a double in the opening two semis courtesy of littermates Roman Empire and Droopys Aoife.
Roman Empire was slowly away in the opener but took advantage of the space afforded him by the withdrawal of Roxholme Jim on his immediate outside to pace up and lead at the opening turn.
Antigua Rum chased hard throughout and did close in but could ultimately do no better than get within just under two lengths of the 34.78sec winner.
Droopys Aoife was out-trapped by Our Lucky Fool in the second semi but outpaced that rival to the turn where she took a lead she never looked like losing, the Essex Vase heroine keeping on to score by three lengths in 35.00sec.
Patrick Janssens' Goldies Hoddle (13.42sec) and Paul Young's Bubbly Buster (23.84sec) were respectively fastest in heats of 225m and 400m competitions.
Janssens' Skilful Sandie was just one spot off the 750m clock in the finale when impressively pulling clear from the seventh.
