Mauritius Race 3 - 7 1/2f Stakes
BLACKJACK RANDALL (2) is the clear horse to beat after winning his past two at this track, most recently scoring as an odds-on favourite from Military Force. His record at around 1500m is strong, he has been highly reliable with Donavan Mansour, and the win over Bugle Boy two starts back showed he can put a race away when placed to advantage. ZACATOO (4) is the main danger on consistency, with placings in both recent runs and a sound record at this track and distance. He was beaten just over a length by Warbird last start and brings the right profile to challenge. TSUNAMI WARNING (1) keeps finding one better, but two BM41 seconds this campaign and proven 1500m form make him a genuine place-and-win hope if he turns those near misses into a stronger finish. NOT IN DOUBT (5) has track-and-distance winning form and gets weight relief, though the recent fourth beaten over 10 lengths means he has to improve sharply from his latest effort.

Returns from a two-month break after another honest second in a BM41 at this track, beaten just over half a length by Warbird when near the top of betting. He had also chased home My Archangel over this venue the start prior, so the consistency is plain. The drop from BM41 grade suits, but he has won only twice from 16 starts around 1500m, leaving him more reliable as a place chance than a clear top pick.

Returns from a six-week freshening in peak form, having won his past two at this track and justified odds-on support last start when beating Military Force by just over half a length. His start-prior win over Bugle Boy was stronger again, putting three and a half lengths on that field in 0-26 grade. With four wins and five places from twelve starts overall, plus a proven track-and-trip profile, he sets the standard.

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing third behind Blackjack Randall at this track, beaten just over four lengths, though she was unwanted in the market. The start prior was a plain last in a BM41, beaten over 12 lengths, which keeps the overall profile mixed. Barrier one helps her get economical cover, but six unplaced runs at this track and distance leave her as an outside hope only.

Returns from a two-month break with a highly reliable profile, having finished third in a BM41 at this track last start, beaten just over a length by Warbird with some market support. He had filled the same placing behind Exalted Love in Set Weights company the run prior. One win and three places from four starts at this track and distance is strong evidence, and the class drop keeps him right in the winning mix.

Returns from a two-month break after a disappointing fourth in a BM31 over 990m at this track, beaten over 10 lengths despite being near the top of betting. His previous fourth in a BM41 was more competitive, beaten a length and a half by Paved With Gold. Weight relief and a past win around 1500m are positives, but the class rise and latest margin mean he has a fair bit to turn around.
