KINGSTON, Jamaica - The upcoming ninth race on Saturday, September 7, 2024, is set for three-year-olds and up horses at the Overnight Allowance level, covering a distance of five furlongs straight.
With eight entries confirmed, The Quick Galloper provides the following assessment in draw order:
1 - CHOCOMO: Chocomo aims to secure a second Overnight contest victory after triumphing over the same five-furlong distance. Despite a disappointing sixth-place finish in the subsequent race, Chocomo will need a good start from the unfavourable draw at one to claim victory.
2 - MONEY MONSTER: Having consistently competed in Overnight races, Money Monster may face challenges on the straight course.
3 - MILOS: With recent displays of unwavering consistency, Milos demands serious consideration despite not racing on the straight course since March.
4 - A GIFT FROM BEN: A decline in form raises doubts about A Gift From Ben’s potential performance on Saturday.
5 - GENERATIONAL: Transitioning from the claiming ranks to Overnight, Generational's past attempts in this grouping yielded limited success. Notably, Generational will race with blinkers on and the visor off.
6 - TAURUS BOY: Transitioning from Open Allowance, Taurus Boy, who clocked 59.4 seconds in his prior victory at the Overnight level, stands as a strong contender for success.
7 - SENSATIONAL MOVE: Following an impressive second-place finish in the same class and demonstrating past success against strong rivals, Sensational Move returns to compete against lesser foes and emerges as a favourable pick for Saturday's race.
8 - FREEDOM STREET: Enduring a prolonged slump, Freedom Street's current form suggests caution against considering this entry. Keep this assessment in mind as you prepare for the thrilling ninth race on Saturday, September 7, 2024.
