Mauritius Race 8 - 1m Stakes

FEAR OF FIRE (1) has the right profile after beating TRICK OR TEQUILA over this course and distance last start as odds-on favourite. He was also second at this venue at the run prior, so his current campaign form is solid and he is proven under today's conditions. TRICK OR TEQUILA (8) is the obvious danger, having missed FEAR OF FIRE by only a head and holding a strong place record at this track and distance, though he has been costly when well fancied. NORDIC PRINCE (7) brings winning form after scoring by just over three lengths over 1500m, and his previous head second gives him a genuine claim if he handles 1650m better this time. KOLA TONIC (3) is hard to knock for consistency, with a last-start 0-25 win over 1400m and a prior head second, while his record around 1650m keeps him in the winning mix.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after doing the job as odds-on favourite at this track, winning by a head and holding Trick Or Tequila over 1650m. That followed a sound second to Blown Away when beaten two and a half lengths, so his two runs this campaign read well. Proven at this track and distance, third-up, and with Manoel Nunes back aboard, he has the right platform to win again.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing third to Lomu at this venue, beaten just under two lengths and again prominent in betting. His previous run was plain when last behind Blown Away, but the broader record is sound, with two wins and five placings from eleven starts. He has placed twice from three tries around 1650m, so he profiles as a genuine place chance rather than a clear winning pick.

Comments

Comes off a neat 0-25 win over 1400m at this track, beating New York City by a length after being well found in the market. He had been beaten only a head by River Hawk at the run prior, so the consistency is easy to respect. With one win from two attempts around 1650m and a solid season already, he looks capable of holding his form and pressing for a minor-money finish.

Resumes from a three-month break after ending last campaign with a second-last to Kola Tonic, beaten nine and a half lengths despite being near the top of betting. His previous half-length second to Lava County reads much better, but he remains winless from nine starts and is unplaced in two attempts at this distance. A return to that earlier placing form would put him in the minor-money discussion.

Returns from a ten-month break after finishing well held at Kenilworth in two Maiden runs, both times at long odds. He is unplaced from three starts overall and has not raced at around 1650m before, so there is very little race evidence to support a sharp turnaround. The stable change adds some interest, but he will have to show far more before becoming a betting consideration.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing fourth behind Fear Of Fire at this track, beaten four and a half lengths. He had been third in a Benchmark 31 at the start prior, though beaten just over seven lengths in a small field. The 2kg weight relief and one win plus three placings from six starts at this track and distance are positives, but he still has to find a sharper winning edge.

Comments

Returns from a six-week freshening after winning a 0-20 over 1500m at this track by just over three lengths as odds-on favourite. Before that he was beaten only a head by Fire Starter when an outside chance in betting, so he has clearly found form. The query is 1650m, where he is unplaced from two attempts, but his latest win was strong enough to keep him firmly in the place mix.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after just missing Fear Of Fire over 1650m at this track, beaten a head when again prominent in betting. He has now run second at his past three, including a placing behind Royal Port Louis when sent out at prohibitive odds. With three placings from three starts at this track and distance, he is knocking hard and gets another genuine chance to convert.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a first-up fifth to Lomu at this track, beaten over 11 lengths. His previous fourth behind Lava County was also only fair, beaten just over five lengths in a small field. The 3kg weight relief and one win from four starts at this distance give him some counterpoints, but he must improve sharply to turn those recent figures into a winning chance.

Comments

Resumes from a three-month break after a third to Paved With Gold at this track, beaten six and a half lengths as an outside chance in betting. The run prior was an eight-and-a-half-length fourth behind New World, so the recent margins are not strong. He has placed six times from eleven starts without winning, including three placings at this venue, but others bring more convincing claims.
