Walls Of Dubrovnik will be the hot favourite to win over 1400m. Only his heavy weight of 61 kg can play against him.
A twelfth victory targeted. Walls Of Dubrovnik won his eleventh race in Mauritius easily three weeks ago. He wasn’t 100 percent fit yet, but he was too good for his rivals. He raced in the middle of the field before producing a strong finish beating Royal Wulff.
Walls Of Dubrovnik is back quite quickly. He has improved a lot and he is close to his best. He is the highest rated horse in Mauritius. He will therefore carry the heavy handicap of 61 kg while his four opponents will only have 52 kg on their back. Walls Of Dubrovnik will jump from the worst lane and the tactical aspect will be crucial. His trainer can choose to try a pillar to post or race from the back before coming to the finish.
Courtroom Magic is the most dangerous of its four opponents. He won his first two races this season before finishing fourth on his last outing. He is a very consistent horse who bagged seven wins in Mauritius. He is very courageous, and he can be very dangerous especially if it has nice trip.
The 990m record holder, Dutch Alley, will return to competition after seven months. He is a very fast sprinter who will try to race up front. He will have to show more in the last 200m to beat the good finishers.
Idotarod Trail did not disgraced on its four outings this season. It is a very good finisher who will be right there if there is a hot pace. He can upset the odds.
