R7. Belmont Sprint - 1 January 1970
|
Can't keep a Champ down
Battle Hero surprised me last start winning the Roma Cup. He was backed off the charts and duly saluted, as is generally the case in WA. He adores Belmont Park and is now undefeated after 3 starts at the Concrete Jungle. I would have thought he was stronger at 1400 than he is at 1200m and so will be mighty hard to beat again here. That being said, you can't keep a champ down and I think Luckygray will be incredibly hard to beat. Remarkably I was able to back Luckygray at even money the place in the Roma Cup after his massive drift in the market and second-up here, with a career record of 3 wins from 5 starts and 4 wins from 11 starts at 7 furlongs I think the Belmont Sprint is his for the taking. Magnifisio is again poised to make the boys work for it and she is definitely back in form after being below her best for almost a 12 month period. They look the obvious three who will hold a mortgage over the market and beyond them I think that Hazzabeel is one who will continue to improve as the distances progress. Wink and a Nod is all class and should get a soft run tucked away on the fence. Will need gaps to open for her to be a threat.

Very impressive horse. Was it not bred by Rick Hart and sold for a few hundred bucks to the owner/trainer??

Sigil in race 6 is $12 most places so I don't think i'll have trouble securing $10+ but the other one I like is the toppie in the last (currently $9) I need it to drift a point to get on drifted, just for you... FAAARK could have ended up having a ...

Magnifisio coming out downgrades the Belmont Sprint considerably. Was there a problem with her ? She wasnt 100% Damien, just looking after her. We will see how she goes over the next week & make a decision. She is not injured just feeling the wet condit...

CJP deserves 6 weeks for his ride over the last 20m. Ride it to the line mate.
