Race 1 Friday Lunch Club is an in and out performer but in this class, he should be considered very seriously. Fort Noble is still looking for his first win. He has been consistent in his performances this season and deserves to break the ice. The last run of Absalom was encouraging. He has come out well from it and with the longer trip, he has a strong chance of opening his account , specially with Robbie Burke on board. Highland Jet showed some improvement in his previous outing and is expected to do better, having been drawn stall 1. Infinite Destiny nearly made it a pillar to post on his last start. If he dictates his pace, he should be thereabouts. Cirac has progressed in his last 3 runs and is an interesting outsider, as is Jack Flash who has been disappointing. Tigger has been drawn very badly, but he can’t be overruled because he has faced tougher opposition. Favourite: Fort Noble Dangers: Friday Lunch Club, Absalom, Highland Jet Race 2 On his debut, Lord Al ran a promising race, showing plenty of speed. If he is not bothered at the front, he will be hard to catch in this lower class. Wolfe Tone finished very strongly last time out. He is an old campaigner but has still a lot to offer. A good each way bet. Surprising Dream will be running for the first time in Mauritius. He is a promising sort and will be interesting to follow. Campus has been average since his last win and has a lot to do from a wide draw. Favourite: Lord Al Dangers: Wolfe Tone, Surprising Dream, Campus Race 3 Quite a tight renewal in which several runners tie in quite closely with one another. Blue Lord is returning to action after a short break. His trainer Vincent Allet was unsatisfied of his last performance. Thus, he is taken to make amends. Mr Wolf finally entered the winner’s enclosure in his last outing. Over this longer trip, he has a tougher job. Tamworth did not disgrace himself last time out. He is in very good condition and has drawn well. He is worth to follow. Tornado Man is running in an upper class but should do well over this trip. Has been progressing since his debut. Prince Alwahtan is a good each way bet. Favourite: Blue Lord Dangers: Tornado Man, Tamworth, Prince Alwahtan Race 4 Isipho and The Balladeer should be bang there once again. On his previous outing, The Balladeer finally confirmed his progress by opening his account. He is facing a tougher opposition but on the other hand, he has improved. Isipho has proved very expensive to follow. He was beaten on his two last outings. Of course, he has an outstanding chance but whether he can make it or not is another question. Hills of Rome has been brilliant in his workouts and could bring some problems to his opponents in the home straight. Leo’s Rush was solid on is debut and will rely on his strong finish. Favourite: The Balladeer Dangers: Isipho, Hills of Rome, Leo’s Rush Race 5 Captain’s Key scored a brilliant win in his last run, setting a new record over 1365m. He has drawn stall 1 but whether he can repeat his performance over this longer trip is to be seen. Beacon Flare had a fantastic turn of foot on his previous outing? The Serge Henry trained gelding is on the upgrade and his trainer believes he can go in again. Bottom Dollar hasn’t run that bad, and could easily make it if he has a clear run in the home straight. Bobby Bear, Master Mascus and Hot Rocket are all set for a furious battle for the lower placings. But our vote will go to Albert Mooney who won impressively on his debut. Favourite: Albert Mooney Dangers: Beacon Flare, Bottom Dollar, Captain’s Key Race 6 At level weight Tales of Bravery is a solid option. He performed well in his return to action last time out. His draw should not be problem and with Robbie Burke on board, he will be right there. Stable companion Casey’s War should also be respected in this contest, especially over 1400m. Seeking Angelo has won on 4 of his last 5 starts. This Gilbert Rousset trained gelding is having a fantastic season and is an ace on this trip. The big question is whether he can secure a soft lead, as he may find it difficult against stiffer opposition. Tandragee opened his account for the season last time out. Even though he has been given a bad draw, he can’t be written off with Johan Victoire on board. Soweto Slew should not be ignored and he has improved a lot and will have Nooresh Jugall as rider. Polar Bound finally broke the ice last time out. He has been drawn stall 1 and if he follows in a good position, he should be considered. Liquid Motion has finished runners up in his last 3 starts. He will relish a fast pace and looks to be a good place bet. Favourite: Tales of Bravery Dangers: Casey’s War, Tandragee, Polar Bound Race 7 Liam was not disgraced in his last outing. This time, he has drawn stall 1 and will try a ‘pilar to post’. Shanghai Kid hasn’t confirmed his last win but he has worked so well that he has every chance of getting back in the winner’s enclosure. Mozart’s Giovanni is returning after a long break. He has shown no problems in his workouts and if he performs at his best, he can make the frame. Slinga Malinga finally tasted success in his previous run. This Vincent Allet trained gelding continues to improve and must be considered. Lancewood finished very well in his last start and commands respect. Favourite: Liam Dangers: Slinga Malinga, Shanghai Kid, Lancewood Race 8 Carcassonne has enjoyed his running since coming to Mauritius. He always gives his best and looks to be once again a priority. Traianius won handsomely at his last outing. He has dropped down a division and should be respected. How Many To Won also scored on his previous run. He is running over a longer trip and looks to have a lot to do. Legal Maxim is running over his preferred trip. If the pace is steady, he should have his say in the final straight. Captain Tempest is coming back after a lay-off. His last run should be ignored as he is normally a consistent sort. He runs his best races close to the pace, so he will have some work to do in the early stages. Forest Shelter and Urbi et Orbi are only two outsiders. Favourite: Carcassonne Dangers: Traianius, How Many To Won, Captain Tempest Race 9 On his debut, Rear Admiral showed a tremendous turn of foot to his account. He seems to have benefited from that run and having trained to the satisfaction of his trainer, he could run another cracker. Prince of Wings confirmed his improvement by scoring last time out but he needs a very hot pace to perform well. Read My Heart caused a very big upset on his previous outing. This time, he’ll have R. Bhaugeerothee on board. The Colonel’s Son will run his first race but has been shaped such that he won’t be far away. The only problem is his bad draw. Acapella has his problems but remains a very good sort. He shouldn’t be ignored as we do believe that he will be thereabouts. In The Frame and Fleet Air are interesting place bets. Favourite: Rear Admiral Dangers: Acapella, The Colonels Son, Prince of Wings
