Race comment
OVERVIEW: Some races possess the unique capacity to solve conundrums and the second leg of tonight’s metro Quad is one such event. Even though we know he’s gifted, the conditions of this contest will significantly help to reveal just how good KNIGHTS TEMPLAR (5) really is. In his seven wins to date, Gary Quinlan’s emerging star has already succeeded at Black Type level and beaten horses like Blitzern, Go Dancing, Helluva and Captain Bellasario to name but a few. On talent he kills these for fun. The issues tonight are the short course trip, the likely maudlin tempo and the short course trip. All of these obstacles are both real and problematic. Despite these facts he’ll almost certainly overcome the lot. If he doesn’t one of three rivals will act as assassins. YANKEE GOLD (9) was cast into an uncomfortable role last weekend but loves sprint-trip racing and drops in grade for this assignment so he heads the list with OZZIE PLAYBOY (1) who seems likely to hold the front and LOVE INA CHEVY (8) who’ll stalk him in transit completing the list of those hoping to expose any weakness or vulnerability in tonight’s Best Bet.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Some races possess the unique capacity to solve conundrums and the second leg of tonight’s metro Quad is one such event. Even though we know he’s gifted, the conditions of this contest will significantly help to reveal just how good KNIGHTS TEMPLAR (5) really is. In his seven wins to date, Gary Quinlan’s emerging star has already succeeded at Black Type level and beaten horses like Blitzern, Go Dancing, Helluva and Captain Bellasario to name but a few. On talent he kills these for fun. The issues tonight are the short course trip, the likely maudlin tempo and the short course trip. All of these obstacles are both real and problematic. Despite these facts he’ll almost certainly overcome the lot. If he doesn’t one of three rivals will act as assassins. YANKEE GOLD (9) was cast into an uncomfortable role last weekend but loves sprint-trip racing and drops in grade for this assignment so he heads the list with OZZIE PLAYBOY (1) who seems likely to hold the front and LOVE INA CHEVY (8) who’ll stalk him in transit completing the list of those hoping to expose any weakness or vulnerability in tonight’s Best Bet.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: Some races possess the unique capacity to solve conundrums and the second leg of tonight’s metro Quad is one such event. Even though we know he’s gifted, the conditions of this contest will significantly help to reveal just how good KNIGHTS TEMPLAR (5) really is. In his seven wins to date, Gary Quinlan’s emerging star has already succeeded at Black Type level and beaten horses like Blitzern, Go Dancing, Helluva and Captain Bellasario to name but a few. On talent he kills these for fun. The issues tonight are the short course trip, the likely maudlin tempo and the short course trip. All of these obstacles are both real and problematic. Despite these facts he’ll almost certainly overcome the lot. If he doesn’t one of three rivals will act as assassins. YANKEE GOLD (9) was cast into an uncomfortable role last weekend but loves sprint-trip racing and drops in grade for this assignment so he heads the list with OZZIE PLAYBOY (1) who seems likely to hold the front and LOVE INA CHEVY (8) who’ll stalk him in transit completing the list of those hoping to expose any weakness or vulnerability in tonight’s Best Bet.
