Pre-race comments from:
DR Stables – “Wilco Blitz is out of her element in a sprint race and will have to improve her time if she wants to compete for the win. Top 5 is possible since the track will be slow or heavy for the final. Pharoah Hanover is the class here but will have to handle the wet track and the mud-larks to win.”
woodchuckers – “I entered the heats for a bit of fun nothing else to do so have horse will run. I really did not intend to look further than just a heat but he ran nicely so why not. Jamaica really not a sprinter but a bit of fun.”
McGee’s Pub and Barn – “I can truthfully say only reason Third Pace and Aristo Alvin are running in the final is for experience and knock on wood maybe one of them might get 5th lol .”
Dixon Racing – “Dynasty is in great shape but she really is not a sprinter and we’re just taking a flyer. Happyskipper’s race to lose with a massive exp advantage.”
Polenov – “Seems like the final is going to be on wet ground, and it is totally against Forza´s racing style (ES). As always, placing would be nice, but it would be extremely difficult in these condition.”
Happy Skipper Stable – “Secret Dynasty is the horse to beat.”
