3 g San Luis - English Kath

Trainer: Trent Busuttin
Odds: 20-1

Replays:
Best, last start: Rating 80 (1st): http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xccj0f_imabayboy

+ 5 wins - more than anyone in the field except Katie Lee
+ Not far away and a bit unlucky when 5th in the Waikato Guineas
+ Huge win last start (against good older horses) at his first try at 2100m - 2400m should be fine

- Hasn't really been racing against great opposition until his last couple

Verdict: I don't know! I thought he wasn't good enough, but I've had to change my mind about him in the last couple of weeks. I think if he had been born a year earlier, he would have won the Derby last year. But this year's field is so much tougher, so I don't know. Like Military Move, there's a nice race for him somewhere.
