Good day to everyone and welcome to India the land of curry. We have a very interesting race before us, and a lot of hopeful trainers will be sitting on the edge of their seats. A strong field of eight horses have lined up for this race, with all of them willing and able to win this. Good luck to all trainer, horses and punters.<\/FONT><\/P>

Well one of the older and experienced horses of the race. Has won a group 2 race before so can definitely mix it up with these. Hasn\u0081ft raced in a stakes race since November last year, and has been struggling in open allowance company. Has travelled all the way from Oregon and at his age he\u0081fs best is probably past him. Place chance for him at best.<\/FONT><\/P><\/SPAN>

Short odds for this one considering he is yet to place in stakes company. Can\u0081ft fault his form and speed over the distance, but the step up in class has proven to be a problem for him before. He is also travelling form Washington so that might take a bit out of him. On the upside for the punters he is yet to finish worst than third this year. This will be a big step up in class for him, but is in form and has <\/FONT><\/P>

The second favourite of the race and as speedy horse who has been racing in quality races. His last start was a very impressive win in group3 class and this will probably be no harder than his previous start. Probably will run from the back and give them all a good head start, but once he puts those big finishing strides in he\u0081fll probably pass a lot of them. Very strong and fast horse big shot to take this out.<\/FONT><\/P>

To our favourite of the race looks like the punters have put a bit of money on and that\u0081fs why he\u0081fs 3\/1. Clearly looking at him he\u0081fs the in form horse and looks like to be on the way up, but has never raced in group company. If he produces the same run as his last start he will win this.<\/FONT><\/P>

From the favourite to the long shot of the race. First start at the distance and probably deserves the long odds, but in saying that he has won at big odds before. If he can fire on the day he is just as good as any horse in the sim, but will have to bring his best to win this. I will be putting a bit of money on him because he\u0081fs a surprise runner. Could be a surprise winner.<\/FONT><\/P>

Well what can I say about this one? Has good form at stakes level but no luck in the graded races. Has been racing in pretty average races when he has won, but with his form you can never count him out. Is looking to get back to form but don\u0081ft think this is the race for him. Place chance at best.<\/FONT><\/P>

First thing you will notice about this one is that he likes this distance, and with three wins and a third out of four starts this year you have to say he\u0081fs a big chance to win this. First start in group 2 and will need to improve from his last couple of starts to win here. Will probably look to lead and hold them off on the turn. Has a big chance to win here today.<\/FONT><\/P>

Another good horse and his last start was in group 3 where he was well beaten by three lengths, but did hold his ground well. Most likely to be near the front again but I predict he will run out of legs. In saying all that has strong each-way claims.<\/FONT><\/P><\/SPAN>
