A short but extremely talented field of turf routers will go postward in Saturday’s prestigious half million dollar Grade I feature.\u00a0 Here they are in post position order.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Breaking from the hedge will be Manager’s Honour My Name<\/STRONG>(ire) who has been a solid stakes\u00a0runner on the grass\u00a0for several years.\u00a0 The five year old son of Galileo(ire) and the\u00a0Grade II\u00a0winner Shan’s Bird (Bluebird x Sharpen Up(gb)) has amassed career earnings of over a half million dollars while winning or hitting the board in twelve stakes.\u00a0 He finished second to Causes Wood(ire) last time out but has yet to win a graded stake.\u00a0 In a race containing\u00a0four Grade I winners, that is not a\u00a0positive sign.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Leofrenzy SS<\/STRONG>(ire) makes his graded debut for conditioner Tinsaltown.\u00a0 He’s been getting crushed in mid level allowances.\u00a0 So the Galileo(ire) four year old is hopelessly buried in here as his odds indicate.\u00a0 Later with much easier.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Manifest Destiny<\/STRONG> is a three time Grade I winner and is just a\u00a0tad shy of two million in career earnings.\u00a0 The magnificent Storm Cat stallion has as much raw talent as any horse in training.\u00a0 But sometimes he fails to bring his “A” game.\u00a0 He finished an even fifth in the Grade I All Comers Stakes last time out.\u00a0 Trainer Tigerman felt that bringing him back on short rest after the Garr Memorial was a mistake.\u00a0 Has had four weeks rest\u00a0for this test and\u00a0will be\u00a0a major factor\u00a0with his best effort.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Sherwood’s homebred Redsadky<\/STRONG> (Red Ransom x Sadler’s Wells x NijinskyII) has been nothing short of sensational in his brief career.\u00a0 After winning his first four starts, he shocked the turf world with a huge second behind the brilliant Minesweeper in Arlington Park’s Grade I Big Red last summer.\u00a0 He closed out his sophomore campaign by winning the Grade I Nijinsky Handicap in Dubai.\u00a0 This season he’s started only three times but enters the fray on Saturday coming off of a big score in the Grade III Slowness Stakes.\u00a0\u00a0Looms a serious danger.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Free\u00a0wheeling Causes Wood<\/STRONG>(ire) is the likely pacesetter here.\u00a0 Last time out the handsome son of Giant’s Causeway(ire)\u00a0posted a most impressive\u00a0gate to wire tally in the Grade II Hallelujah Turf Cup in Florida.\u00a0 In that event, nobody could\u00a0get within two lengths of Ruby7’s speedster as he ran away and hid from a very good field including Seeking Sal.\u00a0 Causes Wood(ire) is a multiple graded winner including the Grade I Coxless Stake.\u00a0 He has won over half\u00a0of his twenty-seven\u00a0lifetime starts and is closing in\u00a0on two million dollars in career earnings.\u00a0 Huge threat.\u00a0 <\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Rounding out our sparkling field is Keryn’s multimillionaire, Seeking Sal<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The\u00a0flashy chestnut is a two time Grade I winner and arrives\u00a0at Churchill in splendid form.\u00a0 Three back he spanked a good field\u00a0at Sam Houston in the Grade III Connley.\u00a0 Then came a HUGE win in the Grade\u00a0I Sand Castle Fee Duty in Dubai where he beat a field\u00a0which included\u00a0thirteen graded winners.\u00a0 Among his victims were Causes Wood(ire) and Jupiter’s Moons.\u00a0 Last time out he was unable to collar the speedy Causes Wood(ire) but did finish a solid second.\u00a0 Yet another with the credentials to win.\u00a0<\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
