No worries for Is That A Fact in Alexander Hamilton feature
The $1.4-million Alexander Hamilton Memorial Trophy, an Open Allowance contest for three-year-olds and upward going one mile (1,600m), is the main attraction on tomorrow’s nine-race card.
The race has attracted a small field of six runners with attention surrounding the Jason DaCosta-conditioned four-year-old American-bred bay colt
Is That A Fact.
The Jamaica Observer’s
The Supreme Racing Guide takes a closer look at each runner and their chances of winning the feature race.
1.SISTREN TREASURE (USA): (4 b f by Brethren – Katira) – Finished third in the Ian Levy Cup on January 1 behind stablemate
Atomica and
Is That A Fact over 8 ½ furlongs (1,700m).
Sistren Treasure was just three parts of a length behind
Is That A Fact in that race. A similar effort could see S
istren Treasure testing
Is That A Fact here.
2. LUKSOL(USA): (5 b m byTapiture – Stunning Taste) – Has no realistic chance of winning this one.
3.I REALISE: (5 b g by Northern Giant – Regina Royale) – Returns to competitive racing from a four-month break.
I Realise was a winner at the races on September 30 when beating
Rainsville by a short head over 7 ½ furlongs (1,500m).
I Realise steps up here from the Overnight Allowance level and is going to find repeating an impossible task.
4.IS THAT A FACT (USA): (4 b c by Palace Malice – Valid Code) – Finished second by 5 lengths behind
Atomica in the Ian Levy Cup over 8 ½ furlongs on January 1.
Is That Fact pointed on
Atomica in deep stretch but could not find the extra drive to win the race. Prior to that run,
Is That A Fact was fourth in the Mouttet Mile behind American-bred
Rough Entry over one mile on December 2, 2023. With nothing in the line-up as half as good as either
Atomica or
Rough Entry,
Is That A Fact should be a winner here.
5. BIG BIG DADDY:(7 dkb h by Natural Selection – Just A Flutter) – Has no form to recommend here for a winning run. Note: Visor off.
6.RANI BANGALA : (5 b m bySavoy Stomp – Palace Gold) – Finished in seventh position by 27 lengths behind
Desert of Malibu in the St Elizabeth Distaff on November 11, 2023 over one mile.
Rani Bangala, who had won four consecutive races prior, is expected to run a much better race here.
