1 GHOST DANCERS(KY)<\/STRONG> <\/P> Record: 28-4-7-5 In excellent consistent form with speeds over 100 and 113 only 2 races ago.\u00a0 Running around the 10 furlong mark too so distance all good here.\u00a0 He just seems to find it hard to actually close out the race for a win.\u00a0 May even want a bit more distance to run to.\u00a0 Need to keep persevering – you would think a place here for sure.<\/P> \u00a0 Record: 29-5-7-2 Has been running over the 8 furlong mark so the trainer asking for a lot more distance here today, well a little bit more anyway and I think this 5yo will only relish the extra length.\u00a0 Has been closing well just wanting more room – look to see him challenge here.<\/P> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Record: 32-12-10-1 In exquisite form, 4 wins on the trot starting off with an Allowance, 2 G2 races and then his last race a speed of 113 in the 10.5f G1 Judgemont International.\u00a0 Hot favourite here at 6\/5 odds with the tote and really looks very very good.\u00a0 Likes to lead – has pace and stamina – hard to beat here. Record: 17-5-1-2 This is of course a horse from one of my stables.\u00a0 Only just picked it up so this is the first race with my stables.\u00a0 Absolutely no chance here.\u00a0 A miserable pathetic runner of a horse.\u00a0 <\/P> 5 SHIMMERING LIGHT(IRE)<\/STRONG> <\/P> Record: 19-6-2-2 Looked in good from in May of this year where he got 2 wins in a row, one of them in Graded company in the G2 Kinsho Kho Classic.\u00a0 Since then though has really dropped off the pace although did manage a 5th place and still closing well finish in the G1 Windy City Turf Classic 2 runs back.\u00a0 Last race was no good though over 5.5 furlongs.\u00a0 Hard to tell but will struggle here probably.<\/P> 6 UNGROOMED(IRE)<\/STRONG> <\/P> Record: 24-5-4-6 Can run the distance and further as he has been closing well.\u00a0 Just is not consistent and is just coming out of a bad patch of form maybe… Needs to life again in both form and speed to have any chance here today.<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Challenge Cup<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":34,"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-8458","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8458","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\/34"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=8458"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8458\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=8458"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=8458"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=8458"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
