  • Joel Rosario
  • John Sadler

C&D winner, good efforts behind top-class Zensational in last two starts, and should go well.

 

Current Odds 9/1


2 (2)3-11121Silver Timber g Prime Timber - River Princess6 9 - 0
  • Julien Leparoux
  • Chad Brown

Highly progressive this year, graduating from claimers to win two Grade 3s, and not dismissed.

 

Current Odds 8/1

3 (3)1101-11California Flag g Avenue Of Flags - Ultrafleet5 9 - 0
  • Joseph Talamo
  • Brian Koriner

Speedy gelding who has won both starts in 2009, including over C&D latest, and bold bid likely.

 

Current Odds 5/1


4 (4)12-0315Lord Shanakill  c Speightstown -Green Room3 8 - 12
  • Jim Crowley
  • Richard Mandella

UK raider with smart top-flight form and while his last was over 1m, he is not short of pace.

 

Current Odds 8/1

  • Rafael Bejarano
  • John Sadler

Only ninth in this race last year and behind California Flag twice this season.

7 (7)123211Gotta Have Her m Royal Academy - Winnowing5 8 - 11
  • Tyler Baze
  • Jenine Sahadi

Consistent this term, decisive winner in a C&D Grade 3 handicap latest, and in with a shout.

 

Current Odds 12/1


8 (8)212-236Square Eddie c Smart Strike - Forty Gran3 8 - 12
  • L Dettori
  • Doug O Neill

Runner-up in the Juvenile on Pro-Ride at this meeting last year but others stronger at this trip.

 

Current Odds 20/1


9 (9)11-1161Diamondrella m Rock Of Gibraltar - Tap Your Feet5 8 - 11
  • Rajiv Maragh
  • Jr Angel Penna,

Came late to land a Grade 1 over 1m at Keeneland latest and drop in trip may not be ideal.

 

Current Odds 11/2


10 (10)1-21211Canadian Ballet f City Zip - Canadian Flagship4 8 - 11
  • Alan Garcia
  • Linda Rice

Not out of the first two in five starts this year but this tougher than races she usually contests.

 

Current Odds 20/1


11 (11)3-61414El Gato Malo g El Corredor - One Bad Cat4 9 - 0
  • David Flores
  • Craig Dollase

Useful in his own right (Grade 3 winner last year) but likely to struggle in this company.

 

Current Odds 33/1


12 (12)175611Strike The Deal c Van Nistelrooy - Countess Gold4 9 - 0
  • K Fallon
  • J Noseda

Done me a few favours already this year and my only concern is wide draw.

 

Current Odds 12/1


13 (13)71-1887Desert Code h E Dubai - Chatta Code5 9 - 0
  • Richard Migliore
  • David Hofmans

Winner of this race last year but not in the same form this season and readily passed over.

 

Current Odds 20/1


14 (14)23-1423Delta Storm g Storm Boot - Talkin to Delta8 9 - 0
  • Garrett Gomez
  • Mike Mitchell

Sound efforts the last twice, including in a 6f Grade 1 here latest, and has each-way claims.

 

Current Odds 14/1


15 (15)235-135Tenga Cat h Storm Cat - Tenga6 9 - 0
  • Mike Smith
  • Ronald Ellis

Held by California Flag both times they've met this season and hard to fancy.

 

Current Odds 40/1


16 (16)2324-18Cherokee Heaven h Cherokee Run - Heaven's Nook5 9 - 0
  • Brice Blanc
  • Martin Jones

Sole victory gained in claiming company and rank outsider here.

 

Current Odds 50/1


My Conclusion
 
Strike the Deal ran well here last year and has been in fine form at home recently, draw is an issue but Fallon will be fully aware of this and at the prices he would be a good e/w bet.
 
STRIKE THE DEAL 12/1 E/W
