I think that Intandokazi is also a lot better on Turf!!
Problem is, that if it doesn't go close today,I think they almost out of options.

Well perhaps he could have held him up a little but I still think he would not have been much closer to the winner - I wonder if Intandokazi means Chickenhearted in Zulu?

LEEULOOP JET expect improvement - gelding will have helped and needed last start -
FORT MEYERS go close to winning
BAD DREAM - stable hot - i think will again earn - exacta floater?
SEVENTH SYMPHONY and LADY ELEANOR (fair debut should be better for that run)
MASTER ENTERTAINER - think he's a strong place bet
SHAMAL placer
CHIEF SIOUX - E/w claims but place option might be better
BARBEL RUN - very strong 4 place prospect - may well win

So now can we stop talking about Rake's Chestnut as a potential GR1 winner???? If he couldn't win this race at these weight terms then he is either way overrated or completely heartless.....
Either way, he has never been in any of my calculations NOW he is nothing more than a A-division campaigner.

The 9 really looked well
Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

The form has been franked for River Empress so just be a little careful in that race of Seventh Symphony. SS has the draw in her favor however!
