PP | Horse ID | Horse | Owner | Jockey | Odds | |
1 | NIPPON FLYER | 2/1 | FUSIACHI Pegasus x DEPUTY MINISTER x BUCK PASSER Nippon Flyer won last time out on sly dirt with her best SP so far. She has never been off the board except in her GIII debut. | |||
2 | SEEKING RENEE | 6/1 | A handy little runner a bit hit and miss with the results. After her win LTO she is making her second appearance at stakes level. Judging by her PPs, Seeking Rene has not found top gear yet…but any time soon she will be flying down the track over taking everyone in sight. | |||
3 | SOOZ APPROVAL | 7/1 | WITH APPROVAL x SOUVENIER COPY x NORTHERN DANCER After starting her career on turf, this dark grey filly has taken very well to the surface switch, finally breaking her maiden, with a much improved sp. Sooz Approval is stepping up the stakes company in her first race since breaking her maiden LTO. | |||
4 | DUMB DONUT(GB) | 5/2 | SLIP ANCHOR x MACHIAVELLIAN x RUN THE GAUNTLET An experienced stakes runner, Dumb Donut hit the board in all her dirt races, coming 4th in her only turf race. A continuing climb in her SPs make this chestnut filly a firm favourite. | |||
5 | TORRID | 9/2 | FORESTRY x DAMASCUS x DR FAGER One of the slower fillies, out of the Super empire. After a good start, Torrid just managed to scrap home 5th in her GIII debut, since the she has be dropping sps. Her win LTO was on turf, will she take to switching surfaces again so soon? | |||
6 | TALES OF THE CRYPT | 7/2 | TALE OF THE CAT x CRYPTOCLEARANCE x PRIVATE ACCOUNT On e win so far over 6f on dirt, since then she has been slowing down ever so slightly. After not bringing any money home in her last two races, she will be champing at the bit to get that first stakes win. | |||
In my crystal ball I see the race unfolding, with DUMB DONUT finishing long before TALES OF THE CAT and NIPPON FLYER. With SEEKING RENE TORRID and SOOZ APPROVAL making up the back. A fast sprint over 5,5f with an expected winner…. Or not!
Back in the real world I still behind DUMB DONUT to win this stakes race. Will the others even get a chance to try and change the result? Wait and see, like the rest of us.
