Race comment
OVERVIEW: The circus resumes here with two horses formerly trained by Ants Butt and Son Smith, now in different stables, and both drawn perfectly, dominating discussion. Oh, and just to give us a hand, one of them is fresh and one second up from a break. For those in the cheap seats, the runners referenced above are BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) and EQUITY STRIDE (2) who seemingly hold the key to this contest between them. Despite resuming without a trial, if BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) leads with relative comfort the race is on his racquet and the same can be said for EQUITY STRIDE (2). If they war for that role, however, new realities emerge. Once again here, monitoring markets will be critical but if both horses mentioned above are kept safe or well backed the likelihood of that referenced war increases and should such a battle transpire WOULD YOU MIND (11) looms large. Yes, we were keen on this fellow last week and he wilted into fourth. but circumstances played against him. If he can peel at the right time off a hot speed tonight, he’ll be very dangerous indeed. Of the two runners reference earlier in this comment there’s a slight leaning toward BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) though EQUITY STRIDE (2) has competed strongly in better races and should not be take lightly. The only other chief winning chance is MONGIANA (8). He was huge a couple of weeks back in a heat of the Vicbred Champ series and if the polemarker holds up then he’ll receive the perfect and potentially race-winning trail in transit.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The circus resumes here with two horses formerly trained by Ants Butt and Son Smith, now in different stables, and both drawn perfectly, dominating discussion. Oh, and just to give us a hand, one of them is fresh and one second up from a break. For those in the cheap seats, the runners referenced above are BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) and EQUITY STRIDE (2) who seemingly hold the key to this contest between them. Despite resuming without a trial, if BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) leads with relative comfort the race is on his racquet and the same can be said for EQUITY STRIDE (2). If they war for that role, however, new realities emerge. Once again here, monitoring markets will be critical but if both horses mentioned above are kept safe or well backed the likelihood of that referenced war increases and should such a battle transpire WOULD YOU MIND (11) looms large. Yes, we were keen on this fellow last week and he wilted into fourth. but circumstances played against him. If he can peel at the right time off a hot speed tonight, he’ll be very dangerous indeed. Of the two runners reference earlier in this comment there’s a slight leaning toward BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) though EQUITY STRIDE (2) has competed strongly in better races and should not be take lightly. The only other chief winning chance is MONGIANA (8). He was huge a couple of weeks back in a heat of the Vicbred Champ series and if the polemarker holds up then he’ll receive the perfect and potentially race-winning trail in transit.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The circus resumes here with two horses formerly trained by Ants Butt and Son Smith, now in different stables, and both drawn perfectly, dominating discussion. Oh, and just to give us a hand, one of them is fresh and one second up from a break. For those in the cheap seats, the runners referenced above are BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) and EQUITY STRIDE (2) who seemingly hold the key to this contest between them. Despite resuming without a trial, if BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) leads with relative comfort the race is on his racquet and the same can be said for EQUITY STRIDE (2). If they war for that role, however, new realities emerge. Once again here, monitoring markets will be critical but if both horses mentioned above are kept safe or well backed the likelihood of that referenced war increases and should such a battle transpire WOULD YOU MIND (11) looms large. Yes, we were keen on this fellow last week and he wilted into fourth. but circumstances played against him. If he can peel at the right time off a hot speed tonight, he’ll be very dangerous indeed. Of the two runners reference earlier in this comment there’s a slight leaning toward BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) though EQUITY STRIDE (2) has competed strongly in better races and should not be take lightly. The only other chief winning chance is MONGIANA (8). He was huge a couple of weeks back in a heat of the Vicbred Champ series and if the polemarker holds up then he’ll receive the perfect and potentially race-winning trail in transit.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The circus resumes here with two horses formerly trained by Ants Butt and Son Smith, now in different stables, and both drawn perfectly, dominating discussion. Oh, and just to give us a hand, one of them is fresh and one second up from a break. For those in the cheap seats, the runners referenced above are BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) and EQUITY STRIDE (2) who seemingly hold the key to this contest between them. Despite resuming without a trial, if BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) leads with relative comfort the race is on his racquet and the same can be said for EQUITY STRIDE (2). If they war for that role, however, new realities emerge. Once again here, monitoring markets will be critical but if both horses mentioned above are kept safe or well backed the likelihood of that referenced war increases and should such a battle transpire WOULD YOU MIND (11) looms large. Yes, we were keen on this fellow last week and he wilted into fourth. but circumstances played against him. If he can peel at the right time off a hot speed tonight, he’ll be very dangerous indeed. Of the two runners reference earlier in this comment there’s a slight leaning toward BLUE CHIP DELIGHT (1) though EQUITY STRIDE (2) has competed strongly in better races and should not be take lightly. The only other chief winning chance is MONGIANA (8). He was huge a couple of weeks back in a heat of the Vicbred Champ series and if the polemarker holds up then he’ll receive the perfect and potentially race-winning trail in transit. EARLY SPEED: 1,2,5 + 7? + 3? RATINGS: 11/ 1/ 2/ 8/ 13/ 4/ 5/ 7/ 3/ 10/ 12/ 9
