The nightcap in Japan is a Bargain Bred Racing Series staple.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>We have two Bargie award winners in this category, the defending champion, the Bargain Derby winner and the Arc de Malaleve winner.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That alone makes for an interesting mix, but the newcomers are solid too. \u00a0<\/SPAN>Will any go on to Bargain Bowl glory? Bring on the bargains!<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Last year\u2019s turf mile bargie winner draws the rail.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>2009 was a charmed one for this oddly named mare, as she dominated the BBRS turf mile events; while 2010 started promisingly for the 5-year-old with a career-best 105, it has been a nightmare since, finishing off the board other than a decent second in May\u2019s Silenius Mile.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It seems ignominious for the defending champion to be 11 to 1, but it seems generous given her recent record coming into the race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Will need to recapture her midpack\/closing style to win this one. <\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

RIGHT WIN (IRE) x SAVOIRE VIVRE (GB) x LAHINT<\/SPAN>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

This year\u2019s Bargain Derby champion owns two turf wins, so there\u2019s hope.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His best asset is to close from waaay back: in the 100 Guineas, he closed from last of twenty to finish fourth.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That may be helpful here, but in the Arc de Malaleve last out he didn\u2019t fire, running an 80.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Sophomore has been getting better and better, and now jumps into the BBRS stakes series.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He\u2019s specialized at this distance and has not been out of the trifecta in his last six.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>His improving series of speeds, culminated with a 96, makes him competitive, and another step forward could put him over the top.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A good turn of foot in the lane, so watch for him late.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

TASTE OF PARADISE x MARCHAND DE SABLE x AL NASR(FR)<\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

5-year-old mare has been solid enough since coming to the Hawkz conglomerate (from protean) more than two years ago, but she has not won since May 2009.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The tipsters are giving her a good chance based on these odds, but this type can have trouble actually earning the winner\u2019s circle.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She ran a 100 in February, but her other speeds are more low-90s, so an exotics finish seems more likely.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

INTIKHAB (IRE) x MANZOTTI x MINNESOTA MAC<\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Another older mare, and a hard-knocking sort (14 for 54, over $400k in earnings), she has quite a BBRS history (won 2007 Kaif Mile, second in this race in 2008).\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Interestingly, she has stayed out of the BBRS ranks this year.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Notably, however, she comes in off a win two back and a 100 speed last out when finishing second in an allowance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She\u2019s got tactical speed, and is a good choice to bounce back into BBRS prominence with a top-two finish here.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

LE VIE DEI COLORI (GB) x STAR APPEAL x SADAIR<\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

Uncoupled entrymate of MIMBO HILL(IRE)<\/STRONG> and member of BBRS sponsor Knightmare\u2019s group of stables.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This is the one who came in off the claim to capture last year\u2019s Silent Witness sprint on BBRS championship day.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He had a break thereafter and came back to run strong speed-wise all year, but until recently was winless on the campaign.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Then he took a turf mile allowance in September and, more impressively, the Arc de Malaleve at 10 furlongs last out, blowing by the field of 15.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A deserving favorite. <\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

DEERHOUND x SHAHRASTANI x CORMORANT<\/SPAN><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>

He\u2019s finished third in the last two runnings of this race, and is the 2008 turf mile bargie co-winner.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Based on that history, I\u2019m not going to throw him out, but he has really been more on the fringes for a while.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Now seven, he ran some 94s this year, the last way back in April, and so is swimming upstream to finish third again in this edition.<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P>
