Mister Tee’s form is a real mystery

ONE could only shake the old head in disbelief at the end of the Group 2 Futurity Stakes at Fairyhouse on Saturday. It had nothing to do with the fact hot-pot Cape Blanco obliged. That was as predictable as forecasting it will rain and rain throughout an Irish summer.

No, the focus of attention was very much the runner-up, Ger Lyons' Mister Tee. How, in the name of God, could he get beaten previously in a maiden at Gowran Park?

If you think such a comment is fuelled by a pocket which was considerably lighter, after the contest, then you could hardly be more right.
