summary
Race 9 is another on the all-weather and this very difficult to nail down one or two runners with any confidence. A group of horses rate very similarly, and map permutations are numerous. There looks to be plenty of pace and that might set things up nicely for the likes of UGLY WARRIOR or FORTUNE BOOTH. The former adores the surface and has only tasted defeat once. He might be able to sneak across into an okay position from a wide draw. Fortune Booth is drawn better, but hasn’t shown much tactical speed, but at least shouldn’t cover unnecessary ground. CALCULATION can track the speed and there is no doubt he acts well on this surface. PATCH BABY should get a good run placed behind the leaders and his end-of-season win rated quite highly, so with the right run he too can fight out the finish. PICK NUMBER ONE went quite well in a recent trial but with all the pressure in this event, I certainly can’t find him anywhere near as short as the early market. Could he going to be found wanting, it’s a wide-open race, so play cautiously.
