Gulf 6th
 

Very tricky 5F sprint on the turf with a lot of familiar names.
Going to select one of those familiar names in Procreate, breaking from the rail with Bejarano. Looms the dominant speed as Bejarano has little choice but to gun and hope for the best. The scratch of Wholelotofbourbon helps Procreate a lot. I wouldnt take a short price on this horse as his form does seem to be on the decline but I'll side with him on the drop, giving his trainer's solid numbers. Also he loves this course and distance.

Placido should make his prescence felt in here but I see him as a need the lead type and I dont think he makes the lead in here. Might hang around for a share with an outside stalking trip.

Catch Me intrigues me here at a big price. Will be coming late and even though hasnt really taken to the green yet, will be passing the tired guys in the stretch.

Gp 2/18
