On a massively lacklustre and disappointing card we finally have a race to get excited about. The Challenge Stakes for 3 year olds is filled with clashing form-lines and looks, on paper, to be an absolute belter of a race. Hard to believe I'm in again, but I think this race is picture perfect for my wallet burning mate, Blackwood. Think she probably under-done for her first-up effort when caught flatfooted in a slowly run race behind The Blue Nipper and should improve lengths here. Finally draws a barrier and should get a very soft run in transit just behind the speed and from there can go through her gears and reel the leaders in. Who Dat Singa will be looking to glide across from the outside and take up the running but from barrier 13 is in danger of being caught wide throughout. The Cobbla ran a cracker first-up in the 3 year old Magic Millions and will eat up 1500m but much like Who Dat Singa was dealt a bitter blow at the barrier draw. Arcadia Delight was running alongside Perfect Reflection and Blackwood throughout her last prep and is sure to make her presence felt. Beyond those 4 I'll include Black Dynamite, Spirit Bird and Forever Diamonds to give me 7 chances in a wide leg of the quaddie.
