Private Eye
Talented handicapper who won the G1 Epsom Handicap in the Spring. Races well fresh and handles the wet. Stepping up to WFA
4. -T/1400793.png)
Dalasan
Quality proven WFA performer who tends has raced well in top quality G1 WFA race in recent preps. Usually better deeper into a prep. Handles wet but unproven on a bog heavy.
6. -T/1202109.png)
Wild Planet
Talented at best and handles wet. G1 placed. Last 3 runs have been plain. Have to take on trust but has the ability to give this a shake.
7. -T/1166128.png)
Dice Roll
Races well fresh and handles the wet. G1 placed last prep. Can surprise.
8. -T/1606135.png)
Law Of Indices
Import. G1 winner in France on a wet track. Strong 5th in the Golden Eagle in first Aus run. Hit the line strongly for 5th first up over 1200m, running +5.7 the 2nd quickest last 600m of the day. Strong chance.
9. -T/1587610.png)
Forbidden Love
Loves it wet and bolted in by 3.6L over 1400m at G2 level last week. Right in it again here.
10. -T/1545058.png)
Lighthouse
Consistent type who ran 2nd at G1 level last start. Should run a bold race again here.
SUMMARY
Interesting little race. History says it’s a genuine G1 race for genuine G1 horses. Laws Of Indices rates on top with Forbidden Love close behind. Private Eye some danger, whilst Dice Roll & Wild Planet are worth a spec at odds.
