BETHUYNE owned by corza4 – 22/1, this horse has nice breeding and continues to run impressive S.P’s but unfortunately that will not get it over the line first this weekend. It is a little under-matured for such a high quality race and will therefore fail to impress and will most likely finish towards the end of the field.
AB FAB owned by dolphinman – 5/1, this horse is very nice and has won 6 of its 8 races and hasn’t finished outside the top 3 in its career. The owner has struck something special here and has managed it superbly. This is my number one tip for Saturdays race.
MAGICAL MERLIN owned by lordbyron – 5/1, not far behind the horse above and will dress to impress. There is no doubt in my mind that this 2 time graded stakes winner will pose a massive threat and the owner has every right to think I’m under rating it when I say that it will finish second.
VIRTUOSO owned by super7 – 11/1, not a bad horse and while it has had plenty of experience in graded races I believe that it should be dropped back to normal stakes races for a bit because it is just a little bit to slow to win these races. A very good colt though.
WASHLET owned by seppy – 11/1, not quite ready for this race. It is quite inconsistent and would definitely appreciate being dropped back to high class ALW races. Should be a good prospect for the future.
DESTINY DANCE owned by topicountb – 15/1, an all right horse but it won’t manage to finish top 3 this weekend. Once again the S.P’s are not quite up to the standard of this race and the jockey that will ride it won’t help it by any means.
TRAVELLING SHOW owned by oaklawn88 – 14/1, this horse has very good breeding and after just having hit a nice patch of form, it may have been under rated here, I’m picking this one to finish 4th with a surprise late run home.
DEPRAVITY owned by funster – 8/1, excellent win/race record here at 5/8 and should manage to run a solid race but due to the other competition I’ll say this one will finish 5th but may impress further.
SAN PELLEGRINO owned by super12 – 15/1, I love the breeding of this horse and while it has been very successful so far this year I don’t think that it will be as impressive as previous races. It seems to have a lot of heart but not enough to win this race.
VENGENCE owned by bulletday9 – 10/1, maybe not quite matured enough for such a race as this but I’m saying it will have a fair dip. I’m picking it to finish 3rd with a surprise tun that will impress all that watch it. This horse has failed to finish outside the top 3 this year which is an excellent sign for the future.
HUSKER DU owned by mikehusker – 10/1, I think this horse is very good and shows great consistency in all its runs but maybe won’t be good enough to win this race. Good luck to the owner but I would still probably be have it in normal stakes races, but hey, that might be why I won’t achieve a graded stakes for a long while.
BLACK CLOWN owned by semi3 – 6/1, this horse has ran some very impressive races in its short racing career but I believe it is very up and down and could do anything here. Its race record shows that it tends to finish 2nd a lot which proves that it might not have it in it to push itself when it counts in this race.
KOORAWATHA owned by triscay – 7/1, this is a very impressive horse and in its 4 race career has already made an impression on the sim world by winning a group one in a very impressive race.
