Ramonti over 10furlongs? Interesting

With his keen style of running, i'm not convinced he will see out that trip. When they said he was going to Hong Kong, i automatically thought they meant for the mile race.

Creachadoir would have been mine choice for the 10 furlong race, as he didn't seem to have quite enough finishing speed over a mile in England and Ireland.

Very tough for the European raiders, don't you think? We will be lucky to leave with one winner. Surely Excellent Art is our best chance, but he is a very tricky ride in my opinion. First i just thought it was Spencer messing things up, but i think we saw that he is very tricky when he ran in the BC.

Dylan has had a long, tough season, and although on form he should be the best horse in the race, I'm not sure how good he will be after being on the go for so long. Hope he wins, but i'm not sure.

The sprint looks like a minefield really. Benbaun is better over 5 rather than 6 in my opinion. I would love to see Tiza run a nice race.

First list of the ones I like: VIVA PATACA is to much for the rest. Same as FLORAL PEGASUS. For a good bet price EVER BRIGHT and SCINTILLATION

I really fancy Ramonti over 10f.. I think he has been crying out for it all year. Frankie has made him go very early in his mile races but I think he'll step up over 10f..

How did Arch Rebel get to HK??
