SUNLIGHT CLASSIC
Results
A high pressure contest is going to suit BENEDETTA (10) with another big field down the straight providing a similar set up to the one she took full advantage of last time. Produced a booming rating there and if she can repeat it is going to take something special to stop her. The one point of difference this time is that she draws on the far side - but assuming things are fair and she gets the room she needs she is the one to beat. WHAT YOU NEED (8) is yet to be seen under any real pressure. Two runs to this point have come in races that were low pressure early and he surely won't get that scenario here. He has ripped home in big splits and looks very smart. Get a nice chance to see just how smart he is today. RECOMMENDATION (2) beat RICH FORTUNE (9) by a slim margin in the Zeditave. That form should hold up here. KAYGEEBEE (6) chased home his stablemate What You Need here first up. Lacks the gears of that one but very solid and can only run well.
