Aaron’s Dance Memorial

The AARON’S DANCE Memorial Stakes, is the showcase event scheduled for New South Wales this week. It sees a field of 10 mares vying for a piece of the $80,000 purse, over a mile and one eight on turf. Due to time restraints, the form might be a little underdone this week. So without further ado, let’s look at the form.

PP1: HIGH RANSOM 6/1

Lightly raced 4yo old, who is hardly out of the placings. Her form reads 10 starts for 4 wins and 5 minor placings. If she continues running in this form and in quick times, she is defiantly going to make it at this level.

PP2: CHOICE IS YOURS(AUS) 8/1

Her form tends to be a little hot and cold at times. I believe she is getting up to her limit at this distance, but if she puts in, we could see her run a good race. Not without a chance if she’s trained on since last race.

PP3: STORM FORCE 7/1

High class mare, who’s form has tailed off in her last to runs. Top jock P Bangs ( 347 – 85 – 64 – 54 – 24% ) will be looking to get her back into the winners circle, but she is going to have to be at the top of her game.

PP4: NASARA 5/1

A horse that tends to put in a good run than put in a shocker. Her win last start was in good style over the same distance in an open Alw. We can only hope that she doesn’t put in a bad one today.

PP5: MINESHAFT STORM 6/1

Her form reads ok, having run many Sp# in the high 90’s. She didn’t run so well in a weaker field last start, so we have to play that one off as a minor setback. A horse that likes to lead and is always in with a chance.

PP6: THE WINNER ISN’T 8/1

Been placed a number of times lately in overnight stakes. Attempted to make the step up to a G3, 3 starts back, but could only manage to run midfield. Hard to have on recent form. Place only.

PP7: STAFF OF SHAOLIN(IRE) 99/1

The tote says it all. Personal best Sp# in 63. Has been thrown in the deep end today, after an Alw win last start against a moderate bunch.

PP8: SPUR ME LORD(AUS) 11/1

Form is only average in Alw class of late. This Flying Spur mare might be coming towards the end of her career, and trainer thereason should be looking at sending her to the breeding barn while she is still young.

PP9: SISTER LUDE(IRE) 5/1

Being running quite well in sprint events of late and I think she might just be looking for this extra ground. Likes to get back in her races and has just being running out of track in previous runs. Big chance.

PP10: GIANT LARK(IRE) 7/2

The favorite has drawn the outside gate in today’s race and could find it find to position up from there. Seems to be a bit of a one paced mare, so the more ground the better. Hard to get a guide on with her scattered form, but should be in the finish based on her Sp#.

Whisper from the Wizard (value bet):

PP9: Sister Lude, everything on the nose.
