Dawn Approach
wasn’t a 100% right yesterday,he ran a shade flat but so did
Toronado
in the 2000gns,both horses ran to their best in the St James Palace Stakes and a Sh hd was all that seperated them.Should both horses contest a race over a 11/4m then I’d favour ‘Toronado’,as he seems to have a stronger Stamina profile but back over a mile its always going to be down to who gets the breaks.’Toronado’ deserved his moment in the sun as he’s a bloody good horse and a genuine Group 1 performer and like Nath says will make a formidable 4yo.Anyone who suggests he’s a 2lb better horse than the Bolger horse is talking through their A*se!
If you think Dawn Approach’s St James run is better Gord, then you must believe a 3 lengths beating of Mars (Short Head + 2 3/4) is "better form" than a 2 1/2 length beating of Declaration Of War? ![]()
That’s some statement. ![]()
Toronado won by 1/2 a length on Wednesday. 1/2 a length is worth around 1.5 lbs at a mile and Toronado won without Hughesie going for absolutely everything, so I’ve added just 1/2 lb more for ease of victory. Seems reasonable to me. ![]()
