Horse Racing Tips - 20th Meeting - August 07

RACE 6: THE EMTEL LIGHTNING CUP - GROUP 3 - 1000m

1. THE CARDINAL - 60Kg - LHERMYTE - DRAWN 5

Is the classiest horse of the lot. Will benefit from a hot pace and thus will come from behind as usual. 60Kg is not a problem. Will be in the top 3.

2. SHORT CORNER - 54.5Kg - GEROUDIS - DRAWN 2

With Geroudis on board, only 54.5Kg, a top draw on this sprint, has pace to follow closely and finish as well. Is the favorite to bag a winner for his stable.

3. ALWAYS A PLEASURE - 53Kg - DYE - DRAWN 6

Has pace, weight and jockey in his favor as well as the 1000m. Is coming after a long layoff but well trained for this race. Will dictate the pace if jumps well from the outside barrier. Can make the top 4.

4. CHIVAS - 53Kg - LACAILLE - DRAWN 3

Is back on his favorite trip - 1000m where he has never lost. Is well drawn, light weight and will have a hot pace.

5. BURBERRY - 50.5Kg - EMAMDEE - DRAWN 4

Is back on the sprint after a good try over 1500m. Has a strong finish and a strong finisher on board. Will follow at the back before sprinting in the last 400m. Is a danger on his debut form on the same distance. Second favorite.

6. MODERN MONET - 50Kg - JOORAWON - DRAWN 8

His first attempt on this trip. Has shown pace on longer trips. Will be well placed in a midfield position. Will have a very good pace. Will sustain finish. A good place bet.

7. IRISH COFFEE - 49Kg - HATT - DRAWN 1

Is in for his first outing on 1000m. Has shown pace and done well in front running tactics in SA. Wit ha plum draw, Hatt on board, and a light weight, he will follow closely to sustain finish if he is unable to lead. The favorite to win the race according to me.

8. REVOLUTION - 49Kg - RAMA - DRAWN 7

Has lost his early pace. Is no more the same horse and finding it difficult to get back to form. Had a good last outing but in a lower class. Outsider's chance.
