KINGSTON, Jamaica – The ninth race on Saturday, October 7, 2023, is a three-year-old and upwards Open Allowance call named in honor of I'm Satisfied. The event covers a distance of six furlongs.
Eight horses will compete, and The Quick Galloper provides the analysis below in post-position order.
1 - LURE OF LUCY returns after a 28-day break. Although the distance suits her well, she faces strong competition and may have to wait for her chance.
2 - IS THAT A FACT has been the revelation of the 2023 season. The foreign-bred three-year-old boasts a career record of five wins from seven starts. As a front-runner, six furlongs is an ideal trip for him, but he won't have an easy run. Nonetheless, he's hard to beat.
3 - GENERATIONAL may struggle in this field.
4 - PERFECT BREW finished third behind Is That A Fact and Blue Vinyl at seven furlongs on September 16. Quickly developing as a come-from-behind sprinter and with the anticipated pace in this race, he could significantly impact the outcome.
5 - I'VE GOT MAGIC makes a quick return after winning just 14 days ago. Slowly regaining his top form, he can keep up with the best around. He finished third behind Is That A Fact on August 19 but hadn't raced since January 28 prior to that. Now better-tuned after racing twice since August 19, I've Got Magic demands respect.
6 - GOD OF LOVE is known for his speed and determination to stay close to the pacesetters before striking in the lane.
7 - ROJORN DI PILOT made a successful comeback in August over his favorite course trip of five furlongs straight after a long absence. However, he might find this race's pace too hot to handle; a minor placing would be his best option.
8 - JORDON REIGN'S is still working on regaining his best form.
