Who will win the $56,500
Hi all and welcome to Germany. Not a stakes or group race but an important race for me and my horse. Five horses will do battle but there will only be one winner. Let's see if we can find it.
PP#1 180210 BLACK THROATED WIND(KY) bandinni S Marx 2/1
L5S:71441 ST: 11:3-3-0 M: $99,900 TSP:100 DF: F/S
First time on the track and distance for him. Nice win last start in allowance company over 1800m with a speed of 98. Ran from the middle last time and stormed home. The second favourite of the race and expect a good run from him.
PP#2 164968 RIGHT AS RAIN(IRE) jeffsbarn T Small Even
Impresive form over the distance with 4 wins and 7 placings no wonder he's even money. Has raced on this track as a 2yo with a fifth over this distance. His last start was a win in allowance company, but to me the field was much easier than this one. Is the favourite and has a great jockey will be finishing home fast. Each-way for him.
Has the form on the distance but I think he's out of his class here. Has a win on this track from 2 starts, but I think we must forget his last start which was on turf. Never missed a top 3 finish on this distance on dirt and did win on this track over 1700m. I think he's asking for a spell but a place chance at best.
PP#4 172843 YOU KNOW WHY(IRE) hpower1 A Starke 3/1
The third favourite and my horse. Has won 4 of his last 5 starts with 3 of those wins being in stakes company. Last start was an ordinary race but he did what he was sent out to do. After he wins here he'll be going on a spell and will be hard to beat here.
The long shot of the race and hard to find anything nice to say about him. If he wins today he'll make more than he has in his whole life. Looked a promising type as a 2yo but has failed to find form. Should be interesting to see if he leads and fades or goes from the back. Not going to get it done here today, but will get some money and points.
So there we have it. My tip is to put money on You Know Why as I believe he will firm into favourite. Good luck all.
