We have Omaticaya in the Jamaica Handicap race 8. She draws well and is well weighted. She has come through her prep well, she is a big runner, but this is a competitive race and I think her current price is a bit thin. I think that the 3 yo's have the advantage as those that ran unplaced but close up in the 3yo fillies features have not picked up penalties for some decent efforts. Wheredowego is talented, and if she had drawn well would probably be favourite. So looks value at 10/1. There is not a lot between us and Princess of the Sky. Masked Lady is a good filly but has to give 3.5kg to the others which may be too much.
Amongst the older fillies and mares, Dancing Dynasty is great value at 16/1 from pole draw.
Forecast 11; 10; 13; 7; 8
Race 1:Freezing Point should win, from Anzac and Data Controller
Race 2: nasty opening leg to the bipot. Captive Action is not too consistent but looks value as he prefers 1200m.
Race 3: epic Tale has been knocking on the door and should go close from good draw. Big Cat, South Kensington, Eternal Jet and Ashton Park are all capable.
Race 4: a lottery
Race 5: Just Harry is not consistent, but on his best form can surprise here
Race 6: Welwitchia is my banker for the day. Hope she behaves herself in the preliminaries.
Race 7: I think this is a very competitive race and I think the price on Ilha Bela is ridiculous. If there is a true pace then the likes of Silver Holly, Schism and Showdown can exploit their lower weights. Dubai Gina is a classy mare and sees out the trip.
Race 9:Endearment ought to win here but she has been very expensive to follow. Gypsy Tinker, Stride Out and Rosey Peg won't be far off.
