Early Docaster markets have Stamen at 126/1, i am extremely confident he is being aimed for this race by Moorhouse, he is a trainer who doesn't mess around entering his horses for every race under the sun, he picks his races and sticks to them. His prizemoney (almost 300,000) should be sufficent to gain him a start already and he hasn't even started his prep. He also hasn't won at group level (albeit hasn't raced) so should be weighted very close to the minimum. In his 18 starts he has been run passed by only one horse in the straight (Striking Victory at Flemington after a hampered run), 50% winning strike rate, a lot of these with biggish weights. He gets back in his races but the speed should be furious this year with Dance Hero being set, possibly Regal Roller, he really gets home hard and after his terrific spring where for the first time he started to put things together he should come back in wonderful order. The class factor is always the query but I have had a good dip at him E/W (no guts no glory right?). Any thoughts? other early tips.

Cheers ED
