KINGSTON, Jamaica - There could be another clash between the top two horses currently in training, She’s A Maneater and Stranger Danger as both horses are provisionally entered to take part in a Graded Stakes event on Saturday next (November 30, 2019).
The last time the two met was on November 9 in the Diamond Mile (1,600m). Then, She’s A Maneater dismantled the then-unbeaten Stranger Danger. She’s A Maneater was five lengths in front of Stranger Danger.
This time, the distance is different and the weights are different, which makes the clash even more interesting. The race is to be contested over six-and-a-half furlongs.
In the Diamond Mile, Stranger Danger carried top weight of 57.0 kgs (126 lb) with She’s A Maneater at 55.0 kgs (121 lb), now it is the other way around. She’s A Maneater has 57.0 kgs and Stranger Danger has 55.0 kgs.
Both horses worked separately on Sunday morning, with She’s A Maneater galloping five-and-a-half furlongs in 1:05.1 and Stranger Danger galloping the same distance in 1:05.2.
The race is not limited to the big two as other horses have their part to play.
Trainer Anthony Nunes has Toona Ciliata, Legality, Bruce Wayne, Exhilarate, God of Love, Houdini’s Magic, Dontae and Fayrouz in the line-up. But it is likely that Toona Ciliata, who finished third in the Diamond Mile is scheduled to contest the Nigel B Nunes Memorial Cup tomorrow. Running tomorrow with Toona Ciliata are Houdini’s Magic, Dontae and Fayrouz. Nunes’ other trainees, Legality and God of Love enter the Open Allowance fray for the first time.
Trainer Wayne DaCosta, the conditioner of both She’s A Maneater and Stranger Danger has Summer Sun, who is entered to race tomorrow as well.
