Vital Equine and Dunelight out because of the soft ground.
Blue Ksar has been doing a rain dance for the last week. He will have a great chance of getting placed now that the ground has turned soft. I still hope Darjina wins, but i'm not sure all this rain will help her chances. Excellent Art will handle the soft, but the hold up tactics have every chance of going wrong today. Ramonti won't want the ground too soft (he has been beaten everytime the word soft has appeared in the going description). Stormy River isn't the force of old. Cesare will more than likely hate the ground. So to, Duke Of Marmalade. Godolphin have had two rabbits win this in the past (can't remember both of their names, but i think summoner was one of them). Blue Ksar winning wouldn't surprise me actually. On his form he isn't good enough to beat the others, but soft ground is vital to him, and he could get an uncontested lead on the pace. If Jamie Spencer doesn't give Excellent Art too much to do in the closing stages, he is the likely winner, however.

It's not a race i am having a bet in. I doubt very much if Duke Of Marmalade will like the ground. He hasn't been risked on anything softer than good in his career so far. It will be very tactical, and we can get strange results at this time of the year. Blue Ksar winning will not surprise me one bit. He goes on the ground. I think he has won all his starts on soft ground and we know he stays further than a mile. If he gets an easy lead and enjoys himself, he could be difficult to peg back.

No more rain so far, but still soft ground.
Darjina takes her chance. Both her and Blue Ksar look stunning in the paddock, Blue Ksar with his characteristic tongue showing from his mouth  (something like that).If Darjina doesn't win, i hope it's Blue Ksar...... i don't like any of the other horses in the race really. Off this race, but the previous race was won by a certain Candidato Roy..... remember him, mmsc?

Ramonti doing a bit of a 'rakti' on the way to the start........ not too bad, but he is stirred up.
