The weight for age championship of the state has brought together a terrific field as you would expect. All of these starters have had great racing careers, some are on the cusp of greatness maybe. Surely we will get each way value in whoever we support, I am going to select the mare Balmont Girl to be victorious and buck the odds, as only a few mares have won this race since its inception. However Balmont Girl seems to have come back in better form that she was in during the Autumn when she won the Oaks, her run in the Railway was sensational. She should come into barrier twelve with the emergencies coming out, and can lob in a good position with some luck in running here, if she does she will be mighty hard to beat. Moriarty ran a super trial for this race in the Railway when rattling home for third, he looks the nominal favorite, the only reason he isnt the outright selection is he just may get a little far back again and may struggle to make up the ground in the straight, but boy it was an impressive Railway run. Disposition lost no friends, only his unbeaten record in the Guineas, and as a three year old carries no weight under the conditions of this race, unfortunately he hasnt fared too well with the draw here, but we know Pike isnt called the Wizard for nothing. Pheidon looks the pacemaker here, at least we know he should be out of any trouble if assuming that position. I could write something on every horse having some sort of show in this race, but have tried to narrow it down to four, a terrific Kingston Town on the racing menu this afternoon.
