DARCI BRAHMA (NZ) x MONSUN (GER) x SADLER’S WELLS
has a lot of early speed ,has been a little off form last few starts ,should be at or very near front setting the pace could hold off some of the field to bring home a pay day . number 1 ranked trainer makes him a threat.

OASIS DREAM (GB) x MONTJEU x KINGMAMBO
longshot to win ,but trainer has been to known to sneak up in a big race ,has some early speed and could challenge for the early lead to set the pace . a mid pack finnish at best here and would be a monster of a race to get in a payday .

turf :19 -9 -5 -1 $1,229,705
KINGMAN x KINGMAMBO x EMPIRE MAKER
the son of hot turf sire Kingman looks to make late charge to get the glory for this years race .with him next to speed he might get a good trip on the rail and clear the field with a good trip,likes to stalk should be sitting near mid pack till the call for home if all goes his way shold be getting a pay day .

MALIBU MOON x ARCH x DEPUTY MINISTER
coming off a grade I win last time out , looks to be stalking near the front ,there is alot of early speed in this race could be a problem if jockey isnt careful .I am sure top 20 trainer will make sure his jockey has his instructions before post time .has the talent to be getting his picture taken.

turf : 26 -11 -6- 3 $1,250,244

7) Shady King 12/1
Owner: chilimac trainer stake wins: 8 ranking: 146
turf : 19 -5- 5- 3 $1,630,740
KING KAMEHAMEHA x STORM CAT x SEEKING THE GOLD
another one of the pace setters who will be trying to get to the front and cause a jam coming home . has shown he has the ability to hold on and win a speed duel but this isnt your every day grade I . trainer looking to take on the best here and has one here who could spoil there hopes.
8) Savoury 11/1
Owner: corzak trainer stake wins: 25 ranking: 51
turf : 19 -5- 2- 4 $1,144,910
HIGH CHAPARRAL (IRE) x MACHIAVELLIAN x BLUSHING GROOM
will be coming home like a freight train ,should blow by the pace setters with no problem if the jockey pays attention and stays away from the jam as the pace setters run out of gas in race to the wire. has been faceing the best all year so should be ready for this star packed field .
9) Atomium 14/1
Owner: mtkgrs1 trainer stake wins: 141 ranking: 2
turf : 15- 7- 4- 1 $768,530
GALILEO (IRE) x OASIS DREAM (GB) x KINGMAMBO
this 4 year old is still figureing out how far and how fast can he run . has all kinds of talent just isnt getting out of his own way sometimes .i am not sure if this race will be the one he comes to life in but you never know ,his breeding says next year will be his year ,if he gets a good trip he could slip by the leaders and make a late run home for a nice pay day.
10) Inveraray Castle 8/1
Owner: mav1763 trainer stake wins: 63 ranking: 20
turf : 19 -7 -2 -3 $1,169,374
SEA THE STARS (IRE) x GIANT’S CAUSEWAY x SADLER’S WELLS
winner of grade one last time out .top twenty trainer will be sure to have his well bred star ready .has plenty of late kick to catch any one in this field . has been faceing top notch runners all year so the field will not be a challenge just getting a god trip will be . and that would mean a nice pay day for his trainer. at 8/1 odds the punters see it the same way .
11) The Passion 14/1
Owner: thewordstables7 trainer stake wins: 20 ranking: 64
turf : 26 -8- 6- 5 $2,953,720
DANSILI (GB) x KRIS S. x NIJINSKY 2ND
the iron man of the field ,has tons of early speed and should be on top at the break and coming out of the first turn then his troubles will begin . if he manges to get enough of a lead he could still be around at the end but his chances are slim but you just never know. trainer looking to steal one from the big boys.
12) King of Awesome 9/1
Owner: mattress trainer stake wins: 17 ranking: 76
turf : 21 -7 -5 -2 $861,963
AWESOME AGAIN x KINGMAMBO x SEATTLE SLEW
we have another of the speed runners here ,with all this speed going to the turn no telling how this race will pan out .he has been on the lead in nearly every graded race he has been in . has enough gas in the tank some times to be in it at the end . this race will test his skills will he be able to out last the rest of the speed runners and hold on for a nice pay day .
13) Mohegan Sun Cadet 9/1
Owner: overbrooke trainer stake wins: 60 ranking: 12
turf : 20- 10- 3- 2 $3,721,916
SEA THE STARS (IRE) x GIANT’S CAUSEWAY x MR. PROSPECTOR
two turns might not far enough for this grade one winner at 9 furlongs . he will be closing fast , if the field dosn’t get to far out front he could catch the leaders . top 12 trainer will be up to the task of getting his star his best chance to get home a winner .looks to have the most stamina so 8 furlongs wont be a problem .
14) Galeb Dhur 8/1
Owner: mitenpower trainer stake wins: 59 ranking: 14
turf : 22 -8 -3 -2 $3,566,160
GALILEO (IRE) x KINGMAMBO x SEATTLE SLEW
another top 15 trainer is looking to take home this years honars . a stalker who dosn’t mind waiting on the speedsters to run out of gas . has a nice late kick that will come in handy in this race with more speed than stalkers will make for a good trip for his connections . if his jockey lets him run his race he should be near at the end.
this race is to close for me to call . so good luck to all the trainers and their connections
Nice going Rock.
Thanks Rock!
