Here we have the 273rd ranked colt in the division who owns a lifetime record on classic dirt\u00a0 6 – 2 – 0 – 0. His 1st win was an Alw NW2L back in\u00a0Oct. of last yr. And then in Jan. he won gate to wire\u00a0in the Irish Kentucky Derby Prep I<\/EM> impressively by 2 lengths and his best sp # to date (90).\u00a0He faultered in the Prep II last month and\u00a0after catching\u00a0up with the trainer for Fared Stable who replied,”King’s Groom is sharp, has a great jockey,\u00a0and we have one chance only to win this race and that\u00a0is\u00a0from the lead and that’s to get clear of the field 3 furlongs out, if Doyle can succeed in doing that he might win because it might be hard to catch him. Otherwise he will be caught a furlong out and finish third.”\u00a0 Listening to him speak in such a way and seeing he is going a mile today we like his theory.<\/FONT><\/DIV>

This colt named\u00a0after\u00a0a\u00a0Simpson’s skit, won his\u00a0first race\u00a0at\u00a0two\u00a0in a glorified maiden\u00a0race (ALW NW43) after running 3rd and 2nd in his two entries in MSW races. His three races while a 2yo were all at 7F and he finished ITM in all. Spider Pig has run twice\u00a0(both\u00a0in Ire) as\u00a0a 3yo and his first effort was in Jan.\u00a0\u00a0losing in an ALW NW2L finishing second\u00a0at 8F\u00a0closing, missing by 3\/4 of a length. His last outing also at 8F also an ALW he came on flying after being 8 1\/4 lengths back at one time, winning easily by 2 1\/4. Homer might be doing some more ceiling walking after this one.<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT><\/DIV>

Breaking from the outside is the longest shot in the race. He is surprisingly ranked 211th, with\u00a0a record\u00a0of\u00a0 10 – 1 -3 -1. Hasn’t won a race since breaking his maiden in june of last yr as a 2yo. Ran\u00a0\u00a03 stakes\u00a0as\u00a0a\u00a0\u00a03yo\u00a0and his best\u00a0 finish was a 2nd three races ago in Jan. This trainer has placed him all over long,short,dirt,turf.He hasn’t run bad at all and could be better than his odds say.<\/FONT><\/DIV>

<\/FONT>\u00a0<\/DIV>
This writer is not sure who is going to win this race. You have a close field here to where one could take the lead and say goodbye or one sitting off the pace and shifting gears, or one coming from the back of the pack. Also depends on which horse shows up, who wants it\u00a0more. It’s hard not to like Spider Pig. He looks to be improving with every race and here loooks to be a perfect setting. Then you have the only stakes winner in this race,King’s Groom who’s last race has to be thrown out and he is being shortened by owner Nickesyd racing <\/EM>club\u00a0 <\/EM>who resides right here in Ireland. Then you have Shamalangadingdong who could also walk away with this one.<\/FONT><\/FONT><\/FONT><\/DIV>
