The July Cup (G1) at Newmarket tomorrow

Sole Power is much less proven at 6f and seems a 5f specialist. His run this past December aside, where even then someone had to run second to the Japanese freak, he hasn't done much at the distance to show he can win here.

The track is absolutely drenched and that can make this a crapshoot. I like Astaire here. He's done some of his best racing over the course and distance and is proven over a bog track. He went too hard up front last time and if he can ration out that speed he can be there start to finish at a good price.

Welcome to the forum and good luck to you tomorrow!

Thanks! The Spanish runner is also an intriguing option and the money is coming down on him in the UK...

Gotta love those Power kids... (Annie and Sole must be so proud).

Cheers to Slade Power!

This is a good horse. Will be interesting to see him run in Australia later on. Lankan Rupee looks a star.

Oh yeah another very very good horse.

Can't wait!

Noticed on your profile your favorite horse is the great Silent Witness...

Isn't it so cool that he and Bullish Luck are together at Living Legends?
