Racing: Coral Eclipse Stakes (3.15)
There's another big match up this weekend and there is
plenty of optimism in the Shamardal
camp ahead of his big encounter with Epsom Derby
winner Motivator in Saturday's Coral Eclipse Sakes at
Sandown (3.15).
After destroying an impressive field in the
St James' Palace Stakes at York, which was the highlight of the
meeting, and this came in addition to winning the French Derby at Chantilly. However,
he does have to cope with Sandown's uphill finish, and this
may not be the most productive trip for him.
His main rival is of course, Motivator, who is dropping down in
distance from 12 to 10 furlongs, will be reeling him in the
closing stages.
The drop back in trip will not be any
disadvantage, however, and could actually be benefit to him
as he has an impressive turn of foot. Another factor going
into this rac is Motivator's freshness. The horse was rested
for the York and Irish Derby meetings, and so will be eager
to get going. His trainer, Michael Bell, is confident that
the horse can handle the fast ground (likely to be
well-watered).
If we look down the field at the older horses, it's difficult to
get excited about their chances, having to concede 11lb to
the three-year-olds, who have an excellent record in the
race, and so the tip has to be Motivator today.
Recommendation: Motivator @ 5/6
