For once we cannot go past Winx. Her performance in the Epsom was extraordinary. The way she came through and the speed at which she put paid to the rest of the field convince me that she is right for this race.
Don’t get me wrong, the field here is stronger and the barrier draw is not ideal as barriers 1 and 2 at this distance at the Valley are the worst you can get. The benefit with Winx is that there will be a lot of ground saved in the run as she is not needing to go forward. The trick will be to find a run from the 600. The Cleaner, from barrier 2 has to go forward and he has the pace to do that and lead. That serves Winx well as she can come off the fast pace and pass a lot of tired horses in the short straight.
It is unlikely you will ever see this price for her again.Right now you can get $6.50 to $7 at several agencies including SportsBet.
