Quena because of the more favourable draw.

Guessing has never been widely acclaimed as a good gambling strategy.

Bayern ,a very new pattern developed over the last few months in Cape Town ......draws that have very low strike rates have won a very high number of maiden races....all from the front.(look back-there have been quite a few that caught me napping)
They appear to have cottoned on to overcoming bad draws with pace,while everything else crawls

(I still cant get myself to back them!! :evil: )

Credit to those jockeys, especially against moderate opposition.

Think Edict of Nantes is decent. However in a 4 horse field like that it was probably fitness that got him through, and lack of such that was against one or 2 of the others.
Too early to write off anybody yet, and in the classic or the sales race over 1400m I wouldn't be surprised if the fittest rather than the best horse can go close.
