Well churchy we are on different wave lengths again. I dont know how you give Our Egyptian Raine any hope but good luck to ya. He'll probly come out and do a PICKETT!!

I only think there are 3 winning hopes
1- Elvestrom. With so much pace in the race this will be a war of attrition. Any horse that is a bit of a squib will be found out.
That was a gutsy win last week, and most horses would have let Makybe go straight past them.

2- Elegant Fashion. world class, loves the 200om. Has been set ONLY for this race by a super trainer.

3- Starcraft. The up and comer. Just a bit concerned that he isnt quite a 2000m horse. Dont worry about all this rubbish that he will get to far back. Boss is a super rider and will put him into the race, no problems, but I just wonder if the last 200 is a knock em down war that he can go past Elvestrom

For my tri's I will be throwing in Regal Roller, flying but will struggle the last 200m to hold on.
Savabeel, who may run ok with the light weight.
Grand Armee, may plug on for the place but I dont think can win.
Roughie is Natural Blitz but only if the rain has not come by that stage.
Good luck to all having a bet.
