![]() Stupid question and I know the very nice winning streak Brave Centaur has going right now (and like him very very much!) but it seems a little strange to see his name in with this group.
I know it's his first G1 (at least i think so!) but (and forgive my dumb question) but is this his first stakes race? I mean no disrespect and like i said I like him... he knows how to win (!)... but I just can't remember him facing horses of this level. |

![]() Yeah, you're absolutely right - this is his first time in any stakes race. It's a big step up for him! But I think he has earned it with his amazing winning sequence.
Tyne Cot is a similar one - four wins in seven starts, but he's never run at stakes level. It'll be interesting to see if they can handle it! I'm looking at the 3yos here - Choice Bro and Neo. They've got to be big chances with light weights on their back. |

![]() Well I hope she wins for you!
![]() Hey what do you think of Viadanas chances? I just watched the Japan Trophy again and wow she was really good! Last edited by my miss storm cat : 04-11-2013 at 12:26 AM. |

![]() Yeah, she is good! She's a little bit inconsistent. Her last five races: 1st, 10th, 7th, 6th, 2nd. So you never really know what you're going to get! If she brings her A game, she'll be hard to beat.
Easter Handicap odds: Brave Centaur 12 Capone 50 Happy Guys 27 Maximum Height 18 Viadana 14 Zurella 5f Sir Lovesalot 20 Sum Up 16 Miss Pelear 25 Postman's Daughter 18 Art Beat 30 Joey Massino 20 Innovation 11 Our Famous Eve 17 Tyne Cot 8 Choice Bro 9 Neo 6.50 Maximum Height is a really interesting horse. At one stage, his career record was 40:2-5-4... now it's 47:8-5-4! He's won six of his last seven. It's a crazy turnaround. |
