OVERVIEW: There’s a bit to unpack in tonight’s Group 3 Silver Chalice. Clearly, no one doubts the class edged possessed by SPELLBOUND (7) and MAAJIDA (8). Between them they’ve scaled far loftier heights than their rivals tonight. That being said, neither currently carries that sense of infallibility they may have once wielded, and of the two it’s MAAJIDA (8), not SPELLBOUND (7) that probably should be fave. Everything went her way last start in the Breeders Crown champs for 4YO mares, but MAAJIDA (8) still owned the contest like the class commodity she is. With even luck she’s the one to beat with some quite legitimate question marks hanging over SPELLBOUND (7). As her Australian profile has matured, two truths have gradually emerged. One, she doesn’t love being used early. And two, she seemingly deteriorates as her preparations progress. She can certainly win this on class but the $1.70 quote currently available seems extremely lean. Despite the market suggesting otherwise, it’s very possible this isn’t the match-race it appears with FINAL PEACE (3), BELLADONNA GIRL (4) and THE PANTHEIST (6) all live chances should the cards all fall their way.

OVERVIEW: There’s a bit to unpack in tonight’s Group 3 Silver Chalice. Clearly, no one doubts the class edged possessed by SPELLBOUND (7) and MAAJIDA (8). Between them they’ve scaled far loftier heights than their rivals tonight. That being said, neither currently carries that sense of infallibility they may have once wielded, and of the two it’s MAAJIDA (8), not SPELLBOUND (7) that probably should be fave. Everything went her way last start in the Breeders Crown champs for 4YO mares, but MAAJIDA (8) still owned the contest like the class commodity she is. With even luck she’s the one to beat with some quite legitimate question marks hanging over SPELLBOUND (7). As her Australian profile has matured, two truths have gradually emerged. One, she doesn’t love being used early. And two, she seemingly deteriorates as her preparations progress. She can certainly win this on class but the $1.70 quote currently available seems extremely lean. Despite the market suggesting otherwise, it’s very possible this isn’t the match-race it appears with FINAL PEACE (3), BELLADONNA GIRL (4) and THE PANTHEIST (6) all live chances should the cards all fall their way.

OVERVIEW: There’s a bit to unpack in tonight’s Group 3 Silver Chalice. Clearly, no one doubts the class edged possessed by SPELLBOUND (7) and MAAJIDA (8). Between them they’ve scaled far loftier heights than their rivals tonight. That being said, neither currently carries that sense of infallibility they may have once wielded, and of the two it’s MAAJIDA (8), not SPELLBOUND (7) that probably should be fave. Everything went her way last start in the Breeders Crown champs for 4YO mares, but MAAJIDA (8) still owned the contest like the class commodity she is. With even luck she’s the one to beat with some quite legitimate question marks hanging over SPELLBOUND (7). As her Australian profile has matured, two truths have gradually emerged. One, she doesn’t love being used early. And two, she seemingly deteriorates as her preparations progress. She can certainly win this on class but the $1.70 quote currently available seems extremely lean. Despite the market suggesting otherwise, it’s very possible this isn’t the match-race it appears with FINAL PEACE (3), BELLADONNA GIRL (4) and THE PANTHEIST (6) all live chances should the cards all fall their way.
