KINGSTON, Jamaica - The second race on Saturday, October 26, 2024, is a two-year-old maiden call in which eight first-timers will enter the starting gates for the first occasion.
The Quick Galloper’s assessment of these eight starters is published below in draw order.
1 - HAZELNUT is a chestnut filly (March 16) by Soul Warrior out Money Magnet, trained by Richard Azan with Dane Dawkins riding. Has caught the eyes of onlookers in the mornings. Said to be progressing well and even from the one draw is going to give a good account of herself.
2 - STRONG MIND is a bay colt (March 24) by Casual Trick out of Charming Beauty, trained by Patrick Lynch with Raddesh Roman aboard. Another who has been doing well at morning exercise. Strong Mind comes highly recommended and can start his career with a win.
3- GIANT VIGOROUS is a bay filly (January 9) by Here Comes Ben out of Glorious Cause, trained by Rowan Mathie with Rudolph Paige aboard. A well-built filly, who with time will make the winning grade.
