LS (LONGSHOT) : * JERAM GLORY....SHOWING RETURNS OF $58 FROM INVESTMENT OF $25 ON WIN ONLY....NETT PROFIT $33....FRANKLY I EXPECT ON SHEER ABILITY FOR SETITUP TO WIN IN A CANTER BUT I AM OBLIGED TO PICK A DIFFERENT HORSE SELECTION FROM IIZI AND STARSTAZ RACING UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF THIS FORMAT AND MY ONLY FLAGSHIP ENTRY IS STARSTATZ RACING
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Singapore and my other flagship entry Starstatz Racing are on an identical score of
1 win/2 placings from 5 selections for a 20% strike rate.For a detailed score check out my other blog on http://www.starstatzracing.blogspot.com/but in summary the outright leader in a temporary lead is LS (longshot) with 3 wins and closely followed with 2 wins by Ma Chao , Xiu Fang, Zheng Qiang and Lao Wang almost by default because Emerald Hill was a course scratching and by format of contest I could not pick Goalkeeper so I went for Speedy Cat whose win was indeed a surprise to me as well . Only Jun Ru and VB are still without a win . However I do expect Craig Evans to lead after Friday's races with a 100% record if Setitup wins as expected!
PREVIEW OF RACE
On ability this is a shoo-in race for Setitup but there is always a fear he may not not saddle up if if his dividends are odds on! Having a 100% record he is the classiest horse in this race despite going up in class and he is the only horse in this race with a sub 48.0 seconds sectionals (actual 25.601/22.181 = 47.782 ...his finishing 400m burst is close to Goal Keeper's time).. Man Of Substance has the 2nd best sectionals in the race but his HR ratings are weaker than both 10 and 9 and I do expect 9 to do well because of his favourable barrier draw and good HR
The pace is expected to be slow with only 2 strong front runners who may have the race to themselves if allowed to dictate the pace and Santana must be careful not to be caught napping and must pressurise them early in the straight! Among the rest Man Of Substance has the 2nd best sectionals in this race. Other than Setitup as a banker the fight for the forecast is wide open and despite the terms of this race favouring the tip weights I am afraid their HR ratings are probably not strong enough to hold out the midliners and the lightweightswho are front runners or on pace runners. In order my selections are 2-1-9-4-6-10-12 ..I suggest a medium bet on 2#1-9 for forecast/place forecast. For those on a budget I suggest a medium bet on 2 as a lone banker and 1-9 as key horses on the 2nd line. For those who have the budget use the remaining 6 horses on the 2nd/3rd and 4th lines
HANDICAP DATA
I am skipping the handicap data at the moment due to family commitments. If time permits I shall give it a try later
