Bruce Wayne, Secret Emperor, Silent Mission, Laban
KINGSTON, Jamaica – THE QUICK WHISPERER has earmarked four horses for readers to pay some betting attention to on the 10-race card on Saturday, April 2, 2022.
The four horses under the ‘Whisper’s microscope are Bruce Wayne, Secret Emperor, Silent Mission, and Laban.
BRUCE WAYNE races in the second event, which is a three-year-old and upwards Optional Claimer ($550,000 - $450,000) going seven furlongs. The combination of trainer Gresford Smith and jockey Aaron Chatrie has forged a formidable alliance that has produced several wins in the last three months. The distance is perfect for Bruce Wayne, who is sure to be a deciding factor here. The win and exacta bets are designed for Bruce Wayne.
SECRET EMPEROR races in the seventh event, which is a three-year-old maiden special weight at a mile. Secret Emperor hit the track for the first time on March 13 and did well to finish fourth just 3 ½ lengths behind winner Thirtyonekisses going 7 ½ furlongs, with El Cid, also in this race, finishing third. That first run is sure to have primed Secret Emperor for this race and he will be there when decision time comes along. Plus, Secret Emperor has been showing up in his exercise spins. Buy Secret Emperor to win, place, and in the exacta.
SILENT MISSION races in the ninth, which is the Thornbird Stakes, a three-year-old Grade 2 call for fillies only over seven furlongs. The big three – three-year-olds (both male and female), Atomica, Golden Wattle, and Outbidder are present in this Classic prep, with Silent Mission getting little or no attention. Yet, while a trifecta of the big three (Atomica, Golden Wattle, and Outbidder) is possible, it is unlikely, and that is where Silent Mission comes into the betting picture. Betting on Silent Mission to place and in the trifecta, and if possible, a win ticket or two, might prove to be profitable.
LABAN races in the tenth, the St Cecelia Cup – a three-year-old and upwards Open Allowance call at 6 ½ furlongs. This event has 13 starters, in what is a highly charged field, including the presence of Horse of the Year Further and Beyond, making his first competitive appearance in 2022. Laban is not usually listed with the likes of Further and Beyond, but he has been so consistent that he cannot be left out of the available betting options. Plus, one must take into consideration that the combination of trainer Richard Azan and jockey Youville Pinnock is present. Buy Laban to place, in the trifecta and superfecta.
