1 110672 ICY SLUMBER excmeeting V Rosenbach 6/1

Pierchinski Stables trains this 5yrold mare who has won 6 from 24 and $410,000 in stakes. Her only win in her last 10 starts was 3 starts back on a wet track over this journey in the The ALL HUNT Special-Stk with a 96 sp. She doesn’t win out of turn but all the same she is very consistent. Raced in a few graded races at the end of last year with some success a return to 12 and in good form may go close.

Theatrical Stables trains this 4yrold mare who has won most of her races on dirt with 8 wins on dirt and 1 win on turf but her turf racing has shown great promise. She is from the good producer IAMNOCROOK who has also left SWEET PHYLLIS and GOLD WELLS(KY) both good stakes performers hard to get a line on how she will go today but bookies say she will figure in finish. It looks as if she will drop back early and try to swoop in stretch in this small field that may suit her.

3 117751 DESPERADO’S MAMBO desperado4 D Ledwith 5/2

Desperado Stables has the ruling favourite for this 5yrold royally bred mare she has only raced twice on turf one being a last start win in the The FRIEND ESTEEM Challenge-Stk in a 101sp but it is as a dirt runner she has shown us her brilliance in the past. She has had 19 dirt races for 9 wins and 5 placing she has run some high sp’s also but I think her trainer has pulled the right rien here and she may have a huge career ahead as a turf runner . She will race handy to the pace and try to outstay them.

The leader of EAAA Coolk Stables trains this 5yrold SADLER’S WELLS mare who I think is the one they all have to beat she has a fine turf record and has performed in graded company. She seems at home over 12f and 2 starts ago won the Petunia Handicap-G2 over this journey in a 107sp and was not disgraced last time out in the Sand Castle Golden Turf Classic-G1 against the best the sim has to offer and no disrespect to these they are not of that quality yet. Will race on the pace and should have to much class. And of what a broodmare in the future.

Topicount Stables one of the master players in the sim brings us this well credentialed mare by SPINNING WORLD she seems to best just finding the best form of her career at the moment and her sp’s have risen greatly of late. She will find graded racing no problem and the distance will be no trouble. She has had two top class wins in her last two starts both over a little further distance last time out she won the The Ascot Turf Distaff Stakes-G3 and if this race develops into a true staying contest she may have to much stamina for them. Will tail the field and dive-bomb them in the stretch.

6 132413 WEXFORD COUNTY futurestar F Foster 6/1

Wow another blueblood bred mare she has had 9 wins from just 18 start for her trainer Dixiedotco Racing most of her top performances have come at allowance class and she may find these a little tough at the moment her best chance may be in the place money even though she has won her last two races. She will race on the pace or just behind the leaders and mat surprise .

7 97264 RUDE STELLA(AUS) freeky I Gunn 7/1

Its funny to say at 7/1 but its true this mare is the outsider of a very even field . She is a very strong second stringer for the Pierchinski Stables who also have the top weight in this race. 11 wins from 24 starts say she is no mug and she has performed well in stakes company and has a pretty nice record at this journey the one to upset at longer odds. The likely leader and she may hold to many guns for these it all makes for an interesting contest with no clearcut winner standing out.
