Competitive-looking Gerry Skelton Memorial Cup
Unbelievable Force (Raddesh Roman) pulls away from rivals for an easy victory at the races on Saturday, September 14, 2024. (Naphtali Junior)

Competitive-looking Gerry Skelton Memorial Cup

Tomorrow’s 10-race card at Caymanas Park features the prestigious $1.25-million Gerry Skelton Memorial Cup, an Overnight Allowance contest for three-year-olds and upward over 5½ furlongs. A competitive field of 14 runners will vie for the top prize.

 

Here is the Jamaica Observer’s The Supreme Racing Guide’s expert analysis:

 

1. FREEDOM STREET: (5 b g by Uncaptured – Nofashionsense) – Faces an uphill task in this competitive field and is likely to struggle.

 

2. IMPRESSIVE FORCE (USA): (3 b c by Klimt – Onebadkitty) – Boasts an impressive record with three wins and one second-place finish in four local starts. His narrow victory over Supremasi on November 2 suggests he’ll handle this distance with ease. Another dominant performance is expected.

 

3. MONEY MARKET: (4 b c by Successful Native – Soca Dancer) – Finished third by 3¼ lengths behind Oasis Jak and Grecian Light over 6½ furlongs on October 26. The reduced distance should suit Money Market, making him a contender for a top-three finish.

 

4. SHE’S A GODGIFT (USA): (3 b f by Wildcat Red – Ghostly Direction) – Secured her last win via stewards’ room decision, showcasing her talent and determination. She’s A Godgift is poised to make a significant impact on the outcome of this race.

 

5. LEGIT BOSS: (4 b f by Casual Trick – Bilingual) – Has no chance of winning this one.

 

6. BROMTOP ALEX: (5 ch g by Lion Tamer – Peccadillo) – A winner on last who is going to find a repeat not possible.

 

7. MILOS: (4 b c by Casual Trick – Vibes Lady) – Consistent sort who is expected to run a very good race.

 

8. GREEN GOLD RUSH: (7 b g Adore The Gold – Princess Lorna) – Is not expected to challenge the main contenders here.

 

9. CALIFORNIA GOLD: (4 b c Lion Tamer – Blue Saphira) – Can be safely bypassed.

 

10. PREMIER IDENTITY: (5 ch m by Bern Identity – Twist and Turn) – Testing deep waters here.

 

11. GET A PEPSI: (5 ch h by Blue Pepsi Lodge – Getupstandup ) – Although a capable runner, Get A Pepsi faces stiff competition and a win appears unlikely.

 

12. POSING ALREADY: (5 b h by Northern Giant – Geisha’s Glory) – Following a respectable fourth-place finish behind Mojito on November 2, Posing Already could secure a share of the purse with a similar performance.

 

13. UNBELIEVABLE FORCE (USA): (3 dk b/br f by McCraken – Debit or Credit) – This talented import impressed with a fourth-place finish behind
Rainsville, Run Julie Run, and Sheer Delight over one mile on October 19. Unbelievable Force has been training strongly, and her pace makes her a prime contender for victory.

 

14. MUDSHAFT (USA): (5 b m by Mineshaft – Taterbug) – Making her local debut, Mudshaft faces an uphill battle and a win seems highly improbable.
