summary

This all-weather race is one where I’m not really keen to play. WINNING SUPREME was an each way bet for us during the week and he ran well. He’s on the quick back-up, likes the surface and I expect that he’ll be one of the hardest to beat once more. LOTUS BREEZE finished alongside Winning Supreme on Wednesday but the question is, “is he as effective on this surface”? Personally, I don’t think that he is. The recent trial of STRIKING MR C was very good and he is competitively weighted, while KING MORTAR has some great early speed to potentially be a leading factor for much of the event. RED HORSE went quite well on the all-weather surface last campaign and the apprentice claim will aid his chances. However, this would be a Winning Supreme play or watch race. Keep an eye on prices to potentially play Striking Mr C.

speed

An event with some pressure! Well, it looks like there are some horses that have early speed that will be used. WINNING SUPREME can lead from KING MORTAR, with LOTUS BREEZE and GRAND HARBOUR other candidates to sit close to the lead positions.
