Verdict

Two hugely exciting sorts clash here. LULAMBA has already had the chance to prove he's a top-class novice chaser courtesy of a pair Graded wins and can put that experience to good use and see off last year's Supreme hero Kopek des Bordes, who has been restricted to just the one run over fences. Kargese looks best of the rest in what promises to be a cracker.

Upcoming Races

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Bobble/Stumble

A slip or a duck from a horse trying to leave the starting gates, often caused by the surface giving way under the feet. This can range from a mild misstep to a stumble down to their knees.

Pari-Mutuel

A pool style wagering system, where all money input through betting is divided among those with winning tickets (save for various deductions by the track operators).

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.
