Race comment
OVERVIEW: Cumulatively, in their last 140 starts the front line runners in this seventh event have led and retained that advantage just 11 times; indicating a fairly docile start to proceedings tonight. Despite being surprisingly crossed last weekend the most likely lamplighter is EXPLICIT CASTLE (2) and with no natural enforcer engaged it’s entirely possible he may stack, rack and out-sprint his rivals. With all due respect he’s not the kind of horse you’d feel comfortable one-putting in Quads however so here are the threats. REGULUS (3) is no star but he has roared home at his last couple and crying out to win while VILLACI (8) is very genuine and can follow pegs or pop off and prove dangerous either way. Give both strong consideration along with TYPHOON STRIDE (4) who would salute if he replicated his upset triumph on Hunter Cup night and YOUNG ROOSTER (5) who will bob up in one of these when circumstances suit.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Cumulatively, in their last 140 starts the front line runners in this seventh event have led and retained that advantage just 11 times; indicating a fairly docile start to proceedings tonight. Despite being surprisingly crossed last weekend the most likely lamplighter is EXPLICIT CASTLE (2) and with no natural enforcer engaged it’s entirely possible he may stack, rack and out-sprint his rivals. With all due respect he’s not the kind of horse you’d feel comfortable one-putting in Quads however so here are the threats. REGULUS (3) is no star but he has roared home at his last couple and crying out to win while VILLACI (8) is very genuine and can follow pegs or pop off and prove dangerous either way. Give both strong consideration along with TYPHOON STRIDE (4) who would salute if he replicated his upset triumph on Hunter Cup night and YOUNG ROOSTER (5) who will bob up in one of these when circumstances suit.

OVERVIEW: Cumulatively, in their last 140 starts the front line runners in this seventh event have led and retained that advantage just 11 times; indicating a fairly docile start to proceedings tonight. Despite being surprisingly crossed last weekend the most likely lamplighter is EXPLICIT CASTLE (2) and with no natural enforcer engaged it’s entirely possible he may stack, rack and out-sprint his rivals. With all due respect he’s not the kind of horse you’d feel comfortable one-putting in Quads however so here are the threats. REGULUS (3) is no star but he has roared home at his last couple and crying out to win while VILLACI (8) is very genuine and can follow pegs or pop off and prove dangerous either way.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Cumulatively, in their last 140 starts the front line runners in this seventh event have led and retained that advantage just 11 times; indicating a fairly docile start to proceedings tonight. Despite being surprisingly crossed last weekend the most likely lamplighter is EXPLICIT CASTLE (2) and with no natural enforcer engaged it’s entirely possible he may stack, rack and out-sprint his rivals. With all due respect he’s not the kind of horse you’d feel comfortable one-putting in Quads however so here are the threats. REGULUS (3) is no star but he has roared home at his last couple and crying out to win while VILLACI (8) is very genuine and can follow pegs or pop off and prove dangerous either way. Give both strong consideration along with TYPHOON STRIDE (4) who would salute if he replicated his upset triumph on Hunter Cup night and YOUNG ROOSTER (5) who will bob up in one of these when circumstances suit. EARLY SPEED: 2 (Potential Leader) + 1,4 RATINGS: 2/ 3/ 8/ 4/ 5/ 1/ 9/ 7/ 6
