Hello everybody and welcome to Norway for a great days racing where the feature race is the Nasty and Bold Handicap (2818.6615) for all horses 3yo and up to be run over 6 furlongs on fast dirt. Today’s race has some of the top sprinters around including division top ten horse SALMON HATER and 13th ranked MY SHEBA T as well as top mare \tFLEURY, so who we it be, Let’s take a look at the form guide and see if we can pick the winner.
PP1
KRYSTALLOS
Game Dam : CRYSTAL CAVE Current Owner: dawgpound SAKHEE x THUNDER GULCH x SECRETARIAT
6\/1
This son of Sakhee has been racing great latly, in his last 4 races he has ran speed figures between 101-107 and is now looking to take the step up to stake level for the first time. Current owner dawgpound thinks he is ready and I believe him as he has one of the best stables in the sim. so far this season he has not managed to win but he was closing late and with a bit of luck and a good ride from jockey H Conway he will be in the finish.
PP2
FLEURY
Based On : DOCTOR SHELF Current Owner: freddurst FORTY NINER x SILVER BUCK x SECRETARIAT 9\/2
Very lightly raced in the early in her career (only five starts in 3 years) this 6yo mare is a 2 time stake winner including a 1 3\/4 length victory over graded winner GENUINE ORANGE in The ART IN A MAZE Stakes-Stk last start. Top jockey J Ruckriegel who is in great form will be keen to ride a good race for freddurst and he will try to sit her just off the speed and make a late dash at the 2 furlong pole. If she can run the 107 speed figure again she will be a great chance to win.
PP3
MY SHEBA T
Based On : AWESOME ASSASSIN Current Owner: tsyndicate KINSHASA x ALYSHEBA x DYNAFORMER 4\/1
Winner of the Deep South Sprint-G1 in his last start as a 3yo and also winner of The SUMMER WORK Stakes-Stk this year My SHEBA T is moving very quickly up the rankings. Last start he was a little disapointing because he failed to run past MR. BIG B in the The FORT DELAWARE Cap-Stk but I will just put that down to a bad day . If he can run like he did 2 starts ago he will also be in the finish. Look for him to sit just off the pace in a battle of tactics.
PP4
TETE GALACTIC(IRE) Current Owner: kartago GALILEO (IRE) x BLUSHING GROOM(FR) x CAERLEON 5\/2
Classic division horse racing this distance for the first time in about 2 years. TETE GALACTIC(IRE) is a 3 time winner at stake and graded level including a win in the Prims Memorial-G2. Last start he made all the running in the Earle Sande but didn’t quite run the race right out and finished 7th. I think the change in distance will be a positive and this is another horse that will be around the money at the end. Look for him to make the pace with SALMON HATER got to rate him a chance.
PP5
SMOKING JAYS Current Owner: vegasjef POINT GIVEN x SEEKING THE GOLD x NIJINSKY II 8\/1
Racing only his 3rd race at stake or graded level this son of Point Given is racing his 5th race already this season, Four starts back he ran a great 3rd in The WESTERN NIJINSKY Memorial-Stk with a rating of 101 then he won an allowence but since then he has not quite been up to that level and I think he will find this a little to hard jockey M.Hollis is in for a tough day. Not for me.
PP6
KING CLAYMORE(JPN)
Game Dam : FISCHER Current Owner: bm3stake SUNDAY BREAK (JPN) x SEATTLE SLEW x MR. PROSPECTOR
40\/1
Winner of The FABULOUS GONZ Challenge-Stk as a 2yo this 3yo son of SUNDAY BREAK (JPN) has not raced well at all this season first going down in the Special Bid Stakes-G3 9 lengths behind the winner and since then ran a couple of shockers before running 3rd last start in The BOBO’S MISTAKE Challenge-Stk with a speed figure of only 92. That won’t get top five in this race so he will need to improve a lot to beat these. I think he should be racing his own age group untill he shows me more.
PP7
SALMON HATER
Game Dam : SALUBRIOUS Current Owner: manager DEPUTY COMMANDER x STORM CAT x FORTY NINER 2\/1
Ranked no 10 in the division and is favorite and deserves that honour. SALMON HATER is a winner of 4 stakes races and is placed at grade 1 level and has run speed figures ove 100 in his past 6 races and he has a career best of 113 in The MAY BRUNETTE(GB) Challenge-Stk. With top jockey H Knott in the sadle and also top trainer manager in his corner this son of Deputy Commander will be making the pace and will be hoping to go wire to wire. I think he can do it.<\/p>\n
Will be an interesting race I expect to see SALMON HATER and TETE GALACTIC(IRE) to fight for the lead while FLEURY, MY SHEBA T, SMOKING JAYS and KING CLAYMORE(JPN) just off the pace with KRYSTALLOS out the back last. I think SALMON HATER will kick at the 3 furlong pole and just be to strong for the rest. I think there are still a many chances though so if you want a trifecta take 7-1,2,3,4-1,2,3,4 any comments please leave them in the btb forum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
