KINGSTON, Jamaica – An interesting three-year-old maiden contest over six furlongs is to be decided on the nine-race card this Saturday (June 11) at Caymanas Park.
THE QUICK GALLOPER delves into the 12 runners to find the winner. This analysis by THE QUICK GALLOPER is done in post-position order.
DANCING WITH A CAT is a bay filly (April 23) by Emperor Hall out of Dancing Wizard trained by Carl Anderson with Shane Richardson in the saddle. The racing learning curve begins for this newcomer.
MARCH AND SHOOT is a bay colt (January 17) by Nasheet out of Lead Vale trained by Ray Phillips with Kiaman McGregor in the saddle. One outing to date will need more time. Note, March And Shoot races with first-time Lasix.
MONSIEUR BLUE is a bay gelding (April 3) by Tourist out of La Hague trained by Gresford Smith with Andre Powell in the saddle. Coming off a long break of 147 days, Monsieur Blue has been looking good at exercise, is well prepared and an effort of least hitting the board is expected. Note, Monsieur Blue races with the tongue tie on.
SNEAKY JOE is a bay colt (April 29) by Sensational Slam out of Distinctly Natural trained by Edward Stanberry with Roger Hewitt in the saddle. This colt has raced once and has not provided any evidence that he can be a factor in this event. Note, Sneaky Joe races with first-time Lasix.
AWESOME PRINCE is a bay colt (May 8) by Vancouver out of Awesome Lucy trained Steven Todd with Omar Walker in the saddle. Put away by She’s Fantastic 19 days ago. Awesome Prince has been making steady progress in the mornings and with the field providing no terrors, he cannot be overlooked for a winning effort.
JUNGLE BOOGIE is a bay colt (April 14) by Soul Warrior out of Ashley Call trained by Anthony Nunes with Jawara Steadman. Jungle Boogie hits the track for the first time, with the choice of riders defining his chances.
SONNY T AND CHIPPY is a bay colt (May 27) by Savoy Stomp out of Trinket Box trained by Spencer Chung with Robert Halledeen in the saddle. Was out of the picture in his first run on May 22. Sonny T And Chippy, while progressing at exercise must settle for a minor place.
JOE is a chestnut colt (April 21) by Legal Process out of Lady Jameela trained by Michael Marlowe with Omar Simpson in the saddle. Has had one outing to date with nothing shown of any consequence. That trend is going to continue Saturday.
FLIGHT TIME is a bay colt (March 14) by Bern Identity out of Blast Off trained by Wilfred Chin with Andre Martin in the saddle. This colt will be looking for revenge after winning on debut only to be disqualified. His trainer has maintained confidence in jockey Andre Martin, with Flight Time having every chance of winning.
GRACEFULLY MADE is a bay filly (April 19) by Blue Pepsi Lodge out of Peace By Peace trained by Alford Brown with Dick Cardenas in the saddle. Gracefully Made faded in her maiden venture at 5 ½ furlongs. Now, going six furlongs, this filly will have to show marked improvement to be successful. Note, Gracefully Made races with the tongue tie on.
BLUE SKY is a chestnut filly (May 2) by Herecomesben out of Breezy trained by Michael Marlowe with Ramon Nepare in the saddle. Needs time. Note, Blue Sky races with the visor and tongue tie on.
JOSH is a bay colt (April 12) by Casual Trick out of Jazzy Jet trained by Richard Azan with Dane Dawkins. Josh has the benefit of racing four times winning once and was then disqualified, with two-second place finishes also to his credit. Josh is primed to run well and with the change of riders from Bebeto Harvey to the red-hot Dane Dawkins, Josh’s winning stocks have soared.
