The 2022 Vincent Najair Trophy is for three-year-old and upwards Overnight Allowance call over 5 ½ furlongs (1,100m).
Below is THE QUICK GALLOPER'S assessment of the 11 horses slated to participate.
-
WILL THE CONQUERER is coming to the grade for the first time. Still, he is of sufficient quality to gain a place on the board.
-
MADELYN’S SUNSHINE has gone through her conditions and has arrived in Overnight Allowance. She defeated Power Ranking by three lengths on September 10, going five furlongs round in a quick 59.3.
-
DUNROBIN is out of his depth at present.
-
PRINCE MARSHALL has had to work hard to get to this level. He will put in a reasonable effort.
-
UNRULY BOSS finished fifth behind Dejae’s Boy and The Good Witch over six furlongs (1,200m) on September 17. With The Good Witch present, Unruly Boss’s chance of winning becomes a slim one.
-
ARTESIA will be comfortable at the distance of this race. She is in good nick can track behind the leaders before striking in the lane. Artesia is going to be there at decision time.
-
THE GOOD WITCH although not being able to deliver in seven starts is as consistent as they come. This trophy event provides the perfect opportunity for her to get off the mark.
-
RAS EMANUEL continues to defy his age with notable efforts. Ras Emnauel should run well for a minor place.
-
SPARKLE DIAMOND (USA has not lived up to expectations, winning six times from 20 starts. Sparkle Diamond has been plagued with injuries, but once he is healthy and sound, he should run a decent race.
-
MAGICAL MOOD has not chance of winning.
-
SWEET MAJESTY did well to reach this level. Will not be a factor.
