Competitive-looking None Such Sprint Trophy
The $1.75-million None Such Sprint takes centre stage at Caymanas Park tomorrow in the day’s feature Graded Stakes/Open Allowance for three-year-olds and upward going 6 furlongs (1,200m).
Only six have been declared, but it’s a talented and competitive field.
The Jamaica Observer’s The Supreme Racing Guide takes a look at each runner and their chances of winning.
1. IS THAT A FACT (USA): (6 b h by Palace Malice – Valid Code ) – Capable on his day but faces a tough task and may be outclassed here.
2. ANOTHER ONE : (4 b c by Aveenu Malcainu – Chintagoodaz ) – Coming off a win last time but is not expected to repeat against this company.
3. DOTHRAKI (USA): (5 b h by Into Mischief – Vanquished) – An impressive winner over 5½ furlongs (1,100m) on August 1, taking it by a length in 1:05.0. He has another half-furlong to handle but
Dothraki looks primed to slip the field and win again.
4. PACK PLAYS (USA): (5 dk b/br h by Stay Thirsty – Standard Deal) – Finished 7th in the Diamond Mile on July 25. This shorter trip should suit him better and he’s expected to challenge for top honours.
5. OF A REVOLUTION (USA): (7 ch h by MacLean’s Music – Hot Spell) – Failed to see out the Diamond Mile, finishing 10th. The cutback in distance should help and based on his running style,
Of A Revolution could lead them home.
6. CALIFORNIA CROWN: (5 ch h by Hedge Fund – Dream Big) – Finished third behind stablemate
Dothraki on August 1 over 5½ furlongs. With his early speed, he’s expected to make a bold bid.
