We have just finished watching the morning workouts here in Japan and we are getting set to run down The JUAN CANNON Stakes Race named for Stakes winner Juan CannonA beautiful sunny day is forecast for this weekend. We\u2019ve got a nicely matched field and this should be fun. Let\u2019s take a look:<\/p>\n

#1 AMERICAN QUEST trainer \u2013 bagpuss, ( 5\/2), Jockey \u2013 G. Arnold (18%), Avg Sp # (100.3) <\/strong><\/font>
One of two 3 year olds in the race, this Coronado\u2019s Quest out of American Humor colt has five wins in only 13 races and two of those are stakes wins. Last outing was not his best as he stumbled out of the gate, went wide on the first turn and never really caught up. He is dropping back down to a preferred distance here and should compete. G Arnold up in the stirrups will skillfully guide him home. <\/p>\n

#2 HORDE RUN A FOUL(IRE) trainer \u2013 pickindim, ( 5\/2), Jockey \u2013 P. Vincent (8%), Avg Sp # (101.2) <\/strong><\/font>
This lightly raced four year old Northern Spur colt that has won half of his 12 races this year.. The second post will be to his advantage as he likes to grab the rail and go for the lead early. He has looked good in his last two stakes races with a win and a second and he has shown some zip in training workouts this week. Trainer pickindim would like to bump his earnings over $300k and this may be the spot. <\/p>\n

#3 SHANNON STEED(IRE) trainer \u2013 poppop2, ( 11\/1), Jockey \u2013 N. Tippins (12%), Avg Sp # (84.6) <\/strong><\/font>
One of three Irish bred\u2019s in the race, this five year old Galileo horse has 10 wins in a long career but is running only his fourth race for trainer poppop2 who recently purchased him for $1.5 million. He is dropping back to his best distance after running long distances for two years. I think this is a good move by the trainer though this is a tough crown to come up against. He could surprise here though.<\/p>\n

#4 OLLIE’S QUEST trainer \u2013 beamnreasn , ( 9\/5), Jockey \u2013 A. Hudson (12%), Avg Sp # (106.6) <\/strong><\/font>
Wow! Extremely interesting four year old Rainbow Quest colt here that has only raced eight times with four wins. None of those were stakes but in four of the last six races, he ran a 106 speed figure or better. That is going to win most of the time. A slow starter, sometimes he seems to get caught back too far and can\u2019t finish. Last out, he had to go wide in the final turn and couldn\u2019t make up all the real estate. A Hudson will be up and will have to watch for that.<\/p>\n

#5 ETERNITY(IRE) trainer \u2013 blackirish, ( 9\/2), Jockey \u2013 K. Ledwith (24%), Avg Sp # (95.5) <\/strong><\/font>
Promising three year old Fasliyev colt that is venturing out of 3 year old company for the first time. He doesn\u2019t seem to have quite the speed of some in this race but is definitely a gamer and will bring it for sure. He has the track\u2019s best jockey up in Ledwith and will be in play at the top of the stretch. Whether or not he can finish remains to be seen..<\/p>\n

#6 BIJOU MATINEE trainer \u2013 tbonefarms ( 10\/1), Jockey \u2013 W.G.Home (14%), Avg Sp # (89.2) <\/strong><\/font>
Longshot Bijou Matinee is a four year old Noverre out of Single Schott colt that has one win since trainer tbonefarms claimed him early this year. He has been consistent, especially at a mile but doesn\u2019t seem to have the talent to win with this group. He may be better off in allowance races although he had a couple of seconds in stakes races six races back. <\/p>\n

Morning Line = 4-1-2-5<\/strong>
Yoss Tipsheet = 4-2-1-5<\/strong>
Paz Picks = 4-2-1-3<\/strong>
Some interesting horses, I like AMERICAN QUEST<\/b> to finish third just ahead of SHANNON STEED<\/b>. HORDE RUN A FOUL <\/b> looks good for second and will contend but OLLIE’S QUEST<\/b> looks like he is on top of his game right now and I don\u2019t see anyone beating him.<\/p>\n

Good luck to all runners!<\/p>\n
