Velasquez probably number one grade 1 jock for Ward but Irad Ortiz is an eye-catching booking. My sentiments would be that he doesn’t know which horse has the better chance. Tyler Gaffalione rides the most for Ward (Cambria in this race) but he wouldn’t be number one big race jockey.
Also, on tonight’s racing, I looked around for bits and pieces about the American runners and the fav in the 1103 Dennis’ Moment is the one that could put up something special, there’s a lot of people who think this hoss is a bit of a freak so we’ll wait and see.
Donna Veloce (932) will have to do something no horse has ever done in a Grade 1 Breeders Cup race and that is win going round two turns at the first attempt so she will have to be a bit special to do that.Ive gone for the four wheel drive/decorated invader double in the end. Hope I’m not kicking myself by not backing Kimari!
Kimari missed the break which ended any hope, she flew home too
A case of what might have been
They are a lot faster out of the gates in American races
Any European runners drawn wide have almost no chance, especially in sprints
Tempted to cash out my albigna bet, dont think she has any hope in hell after watching the first 2 races
What a tough filly british idiom is
Off the bridle miles out but simply too tough for the co fav who travelled way better
Won despite getting bumped about on the first bend and losing position too
I have made the potentially stupid decision and cashed out my bet on albigna for 80% of my stake
Have had the money on crystalle at 13/2
Happy with british idium, was expecting her to win easier.
Draw seems to be semi important, gate speed is definitely the most important aspect, albignia and arizona two who suffered with the break and the short run in, both the best in their respective races as i feared, i think this will continue tomorrow so am happy where i stand with my other 3 bets
Edit: kimari also suffered badly because of gate speed, shes more a european sprinter
Yes, don’t seem to have much of a chance held up unless their is a suicidal pace
My confidence in uni is very low at this stage
Question is will circus maximus have the gate speed to get across from stall 9, I have big doubts about that
Typically euros have a decent time of it at santa anita, but id be surprised if we get a win tomorrow, anthony van dyck etc
I dont think will have the tac speed hence why i avoided them, circus maximus definitely likes to be prominent but dont personally think he has the gate speedGutted for Dennis’ Moment and his stumble at the start, cost him all chance. If Sistercharlie, Midnight Bisou and Code Of Honor win tomorrow I’m going to be reaaally hacked off on Dennis Moment, as it will cost me a £1,750 win! That kickback looks horrendous, Irad Ortiz’ face was a mess.
Managed to pick up the first 3 winners howeever. Without Parole is hugely interesting tomorrow, Chad Brown says he’s been working extremely well with Bricks And Mortar hence why he’s thrown him in at the deep end, 20/1 could be huge!
Not sure if its the weakest but i do agree somewhat, like i said i think albignia and arizona were much the best of their races, but its a totally different style to what their used to here, if you dont break well at the breeders cup/alot of other meetings there, you lose, the bias is almost ALWAYS there, the euro horses just are not bred to burst out of a gate and hit top speed after three strides
Jamie spencer would be a stalls handler over there with the way he rides
Yeah kez as i said here and on my theead im
All over the two of then particularly without paroleHave to be worried about Uni based on yesterday think you are right there FF. Wouldn’t be surprised if Lord Glitters plods on to place if there’s a lightening pace, but I won’t back him. I’m going to go against Circus Maximus as I don’t think he has the tactical pace needed and lets face it, he’s been the best of a bad bunch this season in Europe, would be majorly disappointing if he wins in the US as well plus AOB doesn’t sound that confident. Got Stormy’s run in Canada is being excused by the fact it was on ground with some cut over a mile at Woodbine that is a stiff one if the ground isn’t quick according to the trainer. His front/prominent style of running is much more suited to this track and should confidently reverse form with El Tormenta back on firm. So it’s looking like the 2 for me, Without Parole and Got Stormy, just need to think about stakes.
