Eagle One, Generational, Emperorofthecats to decide Overnight Allowance call
The three-year-old and upwards non-restricted Overnight Allowance call for the Arthur Jones Memorial Cup is the main attraction on tomorrow’s (August 20, 2022) 10-race card at Caymanas Park. The six-furlong (1,200m) contest will see 12 runners battling for supremacy with several in with a winning chance.
Below is the analysis of each runner. 1. RACE CAR (USA): (5 gr/rn h by Race Day – MC Duffie) – Won the second time of asking since returning from injury. Race Car disappointed in his next three runs with an improved effort on the cards. Despite the number-one draw, the presence of Shane Ellis in the saddle, reuniting with trainer Spencer Chung is an indication that Race Car is coming with a good effort.
2. MARQUESAS: (7 b h by Coded Warning – Islamorada) – Returns from a long break of 210 days. Marquesas is going to need the run.
3. EMPEROROFTHECATS: (3 b g by Emperor Hall – Laws of the Cat) – This gelding has done himself proud to reach this level after a struggling Classic campaign. Emperorofthecats is developing rapidly with sprinting his forte, making six furlongs a perfect journey for him. Tomorrow, Emperorofthecats races outside of the three-year-old grouping and may need time to settle in Overnight. Notwithstanding his class can come to the fore.
4. EL PROFESOR: (7 b g by Casual Trick – The Principal) – El Profesor has been very disappointing in his recent races. After finishing second behind Curlin’s Affair two starts before, El Profesor is poised for another showing of worth.
5. LORD OF AJAHLON: (5 gr c by Storm Craft – Crucial Cat) – Out of his depth.
6. SIR JOHN: (4 b g by Natural Selection – Luscious) – Difficult to see Sir John winning this one.
7. DEJAE’S BOY: (5 dkb g by Storm Craft – Dream Big) – Has no form to recommend.
8. EAGLE ONE (USA): (5 b g by Astrology – Frisky Cheerleader) – Capable runner who faces his easiest task for a while dropping down in grade. Eagle One can either come from off the pace or set the fractions, but whatever he chooses, he is going to be hard to beat.
9. BATON ROUGE: (4 b g by Natural Selection – Little Wasp) – Comes into this race on the strength of two consecutive wins both in claiming races. Baton Rouge, will be hard-pressed even for a spot on the board.
10. AWESOME TREASURE (USA): (5 b m by Awesome of Course – Bossy Gal) – This foreign-bred mare is slowly finding herself, and has enough quality to challenge for the win. Note, Awesome Treasure races with the visor on.
11. ONE DON (USA): (4 ch c by Chitu – Shezacrazygirl) – One Don is going to be left behind.
12. GENERATIONAL: (5 ch g by Fearless Vision – Electrifying) – Has been holding his own at this level, as evidenced by his third-place finish behind Curlin’s Affair on July 23. Generational has speed and if used judiciously, he will have a telling impact on the outcome.
