12 ponies are entered with some juicy odds.
After some serious back and forth I wound up on 7 Conquest Panthera 12-1.
Toss out his 8 coming on a turf course rated Good this horse is very consistent.
Coming in 3 lbs light of his top looks like Casse has been pointing him for this spot.
Main concern coming from Lancaster Bomber getting in very light 112 lbs and 1st Lasix, I will take the 12-1 over 9-2.
Tough race.
Any other thoughts?
I think both of the horses you mention have a shot. I think you need to use World Approval as well. No reason he can\'t put up another zero and gets the rail. I also like the line on Grenville Gardens at 20-1 ml, although he certainly wasn\'t helped by the draw. Long on value is interesting....like his pattern but not sure he wants a mile. His recent routes haven\'t been inspiring but had some good routing numbers a couple of years back. He should get a nice rail trip but not sure he will hold on. Thinking I\'ll box the first 4 : world approval, Lancaster bomber, Grenville gardens ands world approval and may throw lov in with a few combinations.
I think the 12 has a big shot if he breaks well and can stalk. One turn better than 2 for post 12.
Good Luck,
