MOVIELAND FUTURITY, UP FOR GRABS<\/U><\/P>
Should be a nice day for an excellent race, all 13 horses will battle it out to achieve victory in this prestigious $450 000 race at California. Heres the field\u2026<\/P>
\u00a0 Movieland Futurity \u00a0 BETHUYNE<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by corza4<\/FONT><\/A><\/I> – 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. \u00a0 AB FAB<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by dolphinman<\/U> – 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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 MAGICAL MERLIN<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by lordbyron<\/U> – 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.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/U><\/SPAN><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 VIRTUOSO<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by super7<\/U><\/SPAN> – 11\/1, not a bad horse and while it has had plenty of\u00a0 <\/SPAN>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.<\/SPAN> <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/U><\/SPAN><\/FONT><\/A><\/SPAN><\/I> \u00a0 WASHLET<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by seppy<\/U> – 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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 DESTINY DANCE<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by topicountb<\/U> – 15\/1, an all right horse but it won’t\u00a0 <\/SPAN>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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 TRAVELLING SHOW<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by oaklawn88<\/U> – 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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 DEPRAVITY<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by funster<\/FONT><\/U><\/A><\/I> – 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.\u00a0 <\/SPAN> \u00a0 SAN PELLEGRINO <\/SPAN><\/B>owned by super12<\/U> – 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. <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/U><\/SPAN><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 VENGENCE<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by bulletday9<\/U> – 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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A><\/I> \u00a0 HUSKER DU<\/SPAN><\/B> owned by mikehusker<\/U> – 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.<\/SPAN> <\/U><\/FONT><\/A> \u00a0
