Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are two critical queries one must answer if they hope to profit from tonight’s Group 2 Smoken Up Sprint. Who will win the early war between fast-starters BULLETPROOF BOY (1) and TORRID SAINT (3)? And would either or both of these runners hand-over to MAX DELIGHT (6) if, and when, he comes knocking? Contrary to what appears popular opinion, this analyst believes BULLETPROOF BOY (1) can hold TORRID SAINT (3) through the early burn. On face value, he’s the slightly less likely of the pair to relent when MAX DELIGHT (6) attacks but Max is so dams quick when he wants to be that he should assume an in-transit advantage regardless. If we’re calling a spade a spade, this critical Vic Cup lead-up isn’t as strong as hoped and there’s precious little obvious pressure once the dust settles. Asa consequence MAX DELIGHT (6) is entitled to win if he leads as outlined but at much better odds BULLETPROOF BOY (1) appeals as the better betting option on an Each Way basis. If the referenced map is wrong and TORRID SAINT (3) finds the pegs first, he’s your almost certain winner given his devastating pace but in a completely unforeseen situation where the pressure remains relentless throughout, winning chances also go to MALCOLMS RHYTHM (10) and also TANGO TARA (11). EARLY SPEED: 6 (Potential Leader) + 1,3 + 2?,4?,5 RATINGS: 6/ 1/ 3/ 10/ 11/ 9/ 4/ 7/ 2/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are two critical queries one must answer if they hope to profit from tonight’s Group 2 Smoken Up Sprint. Who will win the early war between fast-starters BULLETPROOF BOY (1) and TORRID SAINT (3)? And would either or both of these runners hand-over to MAX DELIGHT (6) if, and when, he comes knocking? Contrary to what appears popular opinion, this analyst believes BULLETPROOF BOY (1) can hold TORRID SAINT (3) through the early burn. On face value, he’s the slightly less likely of the pair to relent when MAX DELIGHT (6) attacks but Max is so dams quick when he wants to be that he should assume an in-transit advantage regardless. If we’re calling a spade a spade, this critical Vic Cup lead-up isn’t as strong as hoped and there’s precious little obvious pressure once the dust settles. Asa consequence MAX DELIGHT (6) is entitled to win if he leads as outlined but at much better odds BULLETPROOF BOY (1) appeals as the better betting option on an Each Way basis. If the referenced map is wrong and TORRID SAINT (3) finds the pegs first, he’s your almost certain winner given his devastating pace but in a completely unforeseen situation where the pressure remains relentless throughout, winning chances also go to MALCOLMS RHYTHM (10) and also TANGO TARA (11). EARLY SPEED: 6 (Potential Leader) + 1,3 + 2?,4?,5 RATINGS: 6/ 1/ 3/ 10/ 11/ 9/ 4/ 7/ 2/ 5

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are two critical queries one must answer if they hope to profit from tonight’s Group 2 Smoken Up Sprint. Who will win the early war between fast-starters BULLETPROOF BOY (1) and TORRID SAINT (3)? And would either or both of these runners hand-over to MAX DELIGHT (6) if, and when, he comes knocking? Contrary to what appears popular opinion, this analyst believes BULLETPROOF BOY (1) can hold TORRID SAINT (3) through the early burn. On face value, he’s the slightly less likely of the pair to relent when MAX DELIGHT (6) attacks but Max is so dams quick when he wants to be that he should assume an in-transit advantage regardless. If we’re calling a spade a spade, this critical Vic Cup lead-up isn’t as strong as hoped and there’s precious little obvious pressure once the dust settles. Asa consequence MAX DELIGHT (6) is entitled to win if he leads as outlined but at much better odds BULLETPROOF BOY (1) appeals as the better betting option on an Each Way basis. If the referenced map is wrong and TORRID SAINT (3) finds the pegs first, he’s your almost certain winner given his devastating pace but in a completely unforeseen situation where the pressure remains relentless throughout, winning chances also go to MALCOLMS RHYTHM (10) and also TANGO TARA (11).

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are two critical queries one must answer if they hope to profit from tonight’s Group 2 Smoken Up Sprint. Who will win the early war between fast-starters BULLETPROOF BOY (1) and TORRID SAINT (3)? And would either or both of these runners hand-over to MAX DELIGHT (6) if, and when, he comes knocking? Contrary to what appears popular opinion, this analyst believes BULLETPROOF BOY (1) can hold TORRID SAINT (3) through the early burn. On face value, he’s the slightly less likely of the pair to relent when MAX DELIGHT (6) attacks but Max is so dams quick when he wants to be that he should assume an in-transit advantage regardless. If we’re calling a spade a spade, this critical Vic Cup lead-up isn’t as strong as hoped and there’s precious little obvious pressure once the dust settles. Asa consequence MAX DELIGHT (6) is entitled to win if he leads as outlined but at much better odds BULLETPROOF BOY (1) appeals as the better betting option on an Each Way basis. If the referenced map is wrong and TORRID SAINT (3) finds the pegs first, he’s your almost certain winner given his devastating pace but in a completely unforeseen situation where the pressure remains relentless throughout, winning chances also go to MALCOLMS RHYTHM (10) and also TANGO TARA (11). EARLY SPEED: 6 (Potential Leader) + 1,3 + 2?,4?,5 RATINGS: 6/ 1/ 3/ 10/ 11/ 9/ 4/ 7/ 2/ 5
