KINGSTON, Jamaica - The Arthur Jones Memorial Cup stands out as the highest-graded race on the 10-race card for Saturday, August 19, 2023, at Caymanas Park.
The Arthur Jones Trophy features three-year-olds and upwards at the Overnight Allowance level competing over six furlongs. Nine horses will start the race.
Below is a race analysis provided by The Quick Galloper.
1 - ROJORN DI PILOT: Absent from racing for over a year (412 days), Rojorn Di Pilot will undoubtedly need to reacquaint himself with racing tactics.
2 - TAURUS BOY: Even with the visor on and without a tongue-tie, Taurus Boy lacks any reasonable chance of success.
3 - I'VE GOT MAGIC: A top-notch campaigner returning after a 203-day break, I've Got Magic races well below his natural level and will likely win without hesitation if he's fit and ready.
4 - FREEDOM STREET: Freedom Street hasn't been himself lately but now races over a more suitable distance. A place on the board isn't beyond him. Note: Freedom Street races with a tongue-tie.
5 - IS THAT A FACT (USA): Participating in Overnight Allowance for the first time, Is That A Fact faces an uphill battle against I’ve Got Magic despite making rapid progress.
6 - RACE CAR (USA): Not equipped to handle this competition yet and needs more time.
7 - INSPIRE FORCE (USA): Inspire Force should run an improved race but likely won't trouble the main pack.
8 - CURLIN'S AFFAIR: After finishing second behind Generational on August 7 at 5 furlongs round was disqualified and placed third, Curlin's Affair is well-positioned for another strong showing.
9 - EL PROFESOR: Despite 10 attempts this season without any success, El Profesor can surprise rivals at any moment. However, based on current form, he can only be trusted based on past experience.
