2000m – Turf

1

Nepalo

Already a three-time winner this term and on career-high mark as a consequence. Track and trip fine, with a possible prejudice towards a soft surface.

2

Donner Earl

Reliable sort who rarely runs a bad race and now on a career high mark. A winner at a lower level under this jockey.

3

Felippo

Solid handicapper running at his best trip. On career high mark but claiming rider booked. Place possibilities.

4

Rose Of Lips

Local raider with interesting jockey booked. Track and trip fine, chances.

5

Lucky Eye

Relatively lightly raced 4yo who seems to struggle off his current handicap mark. Good jockey booked, but needs to step up on recent form considerably.

6

Saludos

7yo very much capable of decent form still. Latest finished last in G3 in July, a race beyond his capabilities.

7

Free Lips

Locally trained and talented apprentice book whose 11lb claim is reduced by overweight. Tough task on this seasonal debut.

8

Alisto King

Well-bred horse whose talent doesn’t match that of his illustrious parents. Hasn’t run in Germany for over a year. An outsider.

9

Duke’s Spirit

One win in 13 starts, over today’s trip in July 2023. Out of form since so hard to recommend.

10

Vancouver

Scored his sole career win over this course and distance last September. Creditable runs in defeat though, handicap mark ok so no forlorn hope.

11

Iliano

Small yard who does have winners at this level and operates at a good strike rate. On a decent mark and clearly one for the shortlist.

12

Paris Mon Amour

Not disgraced in a handicap last start on 28 July under claimer. Top Jockey takes over now, so connections clearly ask for improvement.
