Thanks for posting this Pete.
The 3 and the 9 are early sprinters in a route. Neither shows a pattern of closing up in sprints. I think they'll be way out in front. The race should go OTE (as many turf races do).
The 5 and 6 look too slow.
This leaves me with the 1,2,4,7, and 8.
There are a couple of tandem races here. The Eddie Logan stakes was very fast. The 2 and the 7 come out of that race. The other tandem is the last race for the 2 and 4.
1: This guy has had trouble at the start in 3 of 6 races. What's more, he doesn't close up in any of the sprints through the stretch call. OUT.
2: Ran well in both tandems. Contender.
4: Won the tandem against the 2. Contender.
7: Ran well in tandem. Will be behind 2. OUT.
8: Slow. OUT.
Conclusion:
This leaves me with the 2 and 4. This is a tough call. The 4 may get wrapped up in the pace.
The 2 is my choice.
