![]() I might be getting this completely wrong, but I will be laying Sharestan at the current prices being offered at the moment. I know he was very impressive last time, but there was a lot NOT to like about that performance and eventually I think the form will look poor.
He's racing against some very talented group performers (he is not), and while he may win (i'll be prepared to hold my hands up) but he has to be opposed at the prices. I'll also be leaving him out of my selections, which I will post shortly.

![]() Happy with my days work. Nice sum made laying Sharestan (although maybe unlucky I still don't think he would have won, other may beg to differ).
Annoyed with my fourth race selections - first three, but not in the correct order. The summary states that Free Wheeling covered over two lengths more than the rest of the field - probably the difference in the end. Could have been a huge pay day.

![]() I think we can safely say this round will be one of the toughest tipping weeks of the carnvial, the firstbtwo races are littered with dead wood, and I'm at risk of following Ottoman Empire off a cliff. He has been so unlucky on two starts thus far (no pace and caught very wide with no pace yet again). This time he's arguably recieved an even worse draw for a hold up performer (gate 1) and I'm not convinced there is a huge amount of pace in the race yet again, however if things do drop right, he'll simply win!
The second race I don't really want to get involved in at all. I'm interested to see Stasio, could be anything but would have prefered the race on the synthetics. I maybe reading the form all wrong, but Lovely Pass in the 1000 guineas looks a great bet. Seemingly best when fresh, had looked in need of the mile before finally getting the chance as a 2yo and won with ease. A daughter of Raven's Pass and related to a couple of sythetic track winners, I expect her to appreciate the surface. She has finished in front of Music Chart as a 2yo (both have improved since). Ticks all of the boxes for me. Emotif could blow them all away and MDK has been very bullish in recent interviews, but too many question marks after just one start and the penalty makes life harder for her. The Maktoum Challenge is probably the toughest race of the night in my opinion, lots of question marks about the whole field and not a single runner I'd be very confident about. I remember saying I'd be laying Mariner's Cross until he reached a distance of 10f, he's back at a mile again this time, but if I've read the form correctly I think there could be a fair amount of pace on and this is a weaker race than he contested last time. There is no doubt he is well handicapped on the best of his British form and if there is plenty of pace on, his stamina should come into play and I expect him to be there or there abouts at the finish. However, I'm certain we'll see a horse capable of winning a few in a row once stepped up to 10f. Good luck everyone. R1 - Ottoman Empire (NAP), Mustaheel (Alt Layali Al Andalus) R2 - Luhaif, Stasio (Alt I'm Back) R3 - Lovely Pass (NB), Emotif (Alt Music Chart) R4 - Ahzeemah, In The Spotlight (Alt Star Empire) R5 - Hunter's Light, Mendip (Alt Prince Bishop) R6 - Don't Call Me, Mariner's Cross (Alt Banna Boirche)

Luhaif wouldn't be the first to shock in the Guineas. Mariner's Cross was SO bad first up, just don't know what to do with him, but think that last race is a time to go against the home team. There does seem a ton of pace in that race. |

Se I expected Mariner's Cross to run that poorly last time. He showed against Noble Mission that he has plenty of stamina and is more likely to grind out a result rather than put up a dazzling display of speed. That last race looked as though the speed would be minimal (and that's exactly how it turned out) and over a mile it just wasn't going to be a stiff enough stamina test for him. I'm at pains to include him in another mile race, but in my opinion it is weaker than the race two weeks ago and there should be plenty of pace for him to aim at and run them down late. Once again, I'm not sure if he'll win but I do expect him to go close at nice odds. But my big money won't go down until I see him over ten furlongs.
