9/10 had WON that season
7/10 had won at either LISTED or GRP 3 level
ALL had won at least one race in it's career.
Taking the first 2 that are showing on
BETFAIR , then this should be a match between BRUGES + GREAT WAR EAGLE .
BRUGES has won it's 2 career runs , one of which was a LISTED event on G/S over tdays distance of 7f. Sires winning ave = 9.1f . Doesn't have a BHA rating yet unfortunatly but would assume it would be 100+.
Only negative is the fact that it is making it's debut today .
The stable , altough no winners in 14 days , have had 4 2nd places from 7 runners.
GREAT WAR EAGLE come from the WACHMAN stable who won this in 2005 . It is rated 106 [top rating ] and has won over the distance in a LISTED event on the AW track at DUNDALK .
I'ts sires ave is slightly below the mark at 7.5f and ,like BRUGES , is making it's seasonal debut today .
If the ground is on the soft side of good then that could be a negative as it has won on GD / G/F / AW . After that AW wins the trainer stated that it may run again if he gets good ground so i'm taking that as a sign that a bit of give will not suit.
Therefore the selection is
BRUGES , looks like starting fav and no less than
8 clear and JT favs have won this in 10 runnings.
