We have a full field of 14 lining up to face the starter today so lets have a look at their form and see if we can find the winner.<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Polish Reality \u2013 38 \u2013 16\u20139\u20131 13\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><SPAN>Has been running below his best lately but on best form would be right in the mix. Last start in the <\/SPAN><B>G3 \u2013 Ferris Bueller Stakes<\/B><SPAN> over 6F he ran an improved race to post a 106SP although fadding on the line it was a good effort.<\/SPAN><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Get In The Van \u2013 27 \u2013 7\u20132\u20137 9\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Has been running well in low level allowance races winning his last 3 races posting some impressive SP&#8217;s. Will be up riding the speed and might have the ability to kick on in the straight.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>My Jocks Doing Days \u2013 19 \u2013 5\u20133\u20133 16\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Has been running well in allowance races. He will be out the back early and might be able to run home however would have to find a few extra gears to trouble this field.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Chronic Addiction \u2013 24 \u2013 10\u20134\u20132 9\/2<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><SPAN>The race favourite after posting 100+SP&#8217;s in his last 8 starts. Will probably sit midfield and look to run home over the top of them. Last start in the <\/SPAN><B>G2 \u2013 Astroturf Sprint<\/B><SPAN> he sat midfield before running home well finishing 8<\/SPAN><SUP><SPAN>th<\/SPAN><\/SUP><SPAN> of 14. 5F might be a bit short and so\u00a0is 9\/2 for my money.<\/SPAN><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Kitty Heaven \u2013 22 \u2013 4\u20139\u20132 7\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">A nice effort last start in the <B>G1 \u2013 Gary Carter Handicap<\/B> finishing 7<SUP>th<\/SUP> beaten 5 length posting a 104SP over 7F. I think he found the 7F a touch long for him and I judge his chances on 3<SUP>rd<\/SUP> at his previous start posting a 110SP. Will appreciate the shorter trip and is a good chance<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Driven By Demons \u2013 18 \u2013 5\u20136\u20131 13\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">A nice run in his first stakes run posting a beautiful win over 7 fulongs posting a 110SP. Before that was working through the allowance grades nicley and only has to follow up his last start to be a big chance.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Antique Gold \u2013 13 \u2013 4\u20135\u20130 9\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Another who comes in to this with his last start in the <B>G1 \u2013 Gary Carter Handicap<\/B> finishing 10<SUP>th<\/SUP> after leading early eventually being beaten by 7 \u00bc lengths posting a 100SP over 7F. The 7F was too long for him last time out and he has run some nice races over 6F in the past so he has to be a chance here.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Smokentate \u2013 50 \u2013 14\u20135\u20137 19\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Ran a nice honest race last start in <B>G1 \u2013 The Lannister Special<\/B> placing 3<SUP>rd<\/SUP> over 6F posting a 99SP. A pleasing run the start before winning an allowance with a 106SP. Had his birthday last start finding a 6yo G1 event and would need to improve here.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Happy A \u2013 27 \u2013 8\u20130\u20133 10\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">A very dissapointing run last start in the <B>G1 &#8211; Maryland Special<\/B> finishing a long way from the winner. The start before was a nice run although fadding running 3<SUP>rd<\/SUP> posting a 106SP over 7F in the <B>G1 \u2013 The Jimmy &#038; Billy Stakes<\/B>. Would need to improve here to win.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Stocking Filler \u2013 18 \u2013 6\u20131\u20132 11\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Comes into this in career best form with his last 3 starts all posting 100+SP&#8217;s. 2 starts back he ran a very good 110SP in the <B>G2 \u2013 The Wild West Dash Stakes<\/B> posting a wire to wire win over 6F. If can repeat that he will be a place chance here.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Statue of Pye \u2013 53 \u20138\u201315\u20139 9\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Will get back early and will try and steam home late. Has been mixing his grades between stakes and allowance level with some nice results. Two starts back he ran 3<SUP>rd<\/SUP> posting a 108SP in a stakes race finishing it off well. Needs to improve but if he can may run a place.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Act of Brave \u2013 40 \u20139\u20137\u20133 15\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Has been below best of late runnin down the track and posting low SP&#8217;s. If he can duplicate his run 6 starts ago when he ran a massive 115SP over 6F he would be a winning chance here. Needs to improve a lot on latest efforts.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>NWRC Quest \u2013 30 \u20138\u20134\u20134 11\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Another whose last 3 starts have been dissapointing. 4 starts back led all the way over 6F posting a 110SP in stakes level. Also would need to improve but if can recapture his best would be a place chance.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><B>Figgaro \u2013 27 \u201310\u20135\u20133 10\/1<\/B><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Has been running in allowance races and steps up to Graded level for the first time here. Won his only stakes race a long time ago but on recent runs I think others in this field have better chances. One thing I did notice that this would of been a great claim for only $15,000 and it was no suprise he only had 1 start down there.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Good Luck to all horses and trainers and I hope everyone comes home healthy.<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\">Chris<\/P><P style=\"MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0cm\"><BR><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who will Sprint The Fastest<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":391,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6036","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6036","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/391"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6036"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6036\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6036"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6036"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6036"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
