IPPODROMO DEL MEDITERRANEO, SIRACUSA, PARTENTI DICHIARATI PER LE CORSE DEL : 16 – 03 – 19, INIZIO RIUNIONE ORE : 15.15
Si riparte da Kylach per affrontare il Premio Saffo.
Difficile contesto dove primeggiare, ma Kylach Me If U Can, forte delle sue due vittorie consecutive, resta l’atteso e indiscusso protagonista del Premio Saffo. È la condizionata, sul miglio di pista grande, che impegnerà i cavalli di 4 anni e oltre nella più generosa delle sei corse di galoppo in programma, sabato 16 marzo, all’Ippodromo del Mediterraneo di Siracusa. L’ultima linea tracciata dall’allievo di Antonino Cannella deve far considerare la buona forma di Lord Schekin e del positivo Duc Del Rose, ma la scuderia giallo-verde di Marco Cuschieri punta sui due suoi gioielli. Anche Espoir Bere ha chance, benché allunghi la distanza. Poi c’e Ratmusquet, regolare e in progresso. Schierati troviamo, anche, il buon Saint Steven, benché alterno, e Domestic Heart che ha già dimostrato di poter mettere dietro questi avversari. Reduce da una vittoria un So You Zen che in sella mette qualche chilo in più. Avversario di tutto rispetto resta Clockwinder che si presenta in leggero regresso.
Il galoppo scatterà alle 15:15, con una prima competizione appannaggio di Sambuco e Yasood.
Altra corsa di interesse è la quarta. Qui, schierato un Kingston Sassafras piuttosto in forma, che trascina in linea con sé Digonient e Madammento. Potenziali avversari Oh So Touchy e Ouragan Gris, con l’ottimo Siciliano Bello che allunga.
Corsa affollata anche la terza, Premio Lirici Greci. Agent Bond e Swiss Brother schierati contro la linea di Saga Romane, MM Blue Onyx e Sopran Rey. Almeno questo lo scenario dettato su carta dai curriculum dei cavalli di tre anni chiamati a concorrere sui 1700 metri della pista grande.
Le ultime tre corse sono, poi, legate all’ippica nazionale.

KOREA : Seoul Saturday: Race-By-Race Preview (March 16)by gyongmaman |
There are 12 races at Seoul on Saturday from 10:45 to 18:00 including a big class 1 handicap featuring Stakes winners Road Winner and Sky Bay. Here are the previews:
Race 1: Class 6 (1000M) Allowance / KRW 40 Million
(3) JEMA TEUKGEUP ran a very close 2nd on what was just her second career start on February 16th. She was close to the pace throughout and is the pick to improve and win this today. (6) SINBU was 2nd in that race on what was for her too a much-improved second start. She has four-lengths to make up and can get closer this time. (8) SIMON QUEEN was further back in that race, but it was her debut and she can build on it today. (5) GWACHEONUI BYEOL too got better on her latest start and can be in the frame. (7) QUEEN STREET was second on debut at the end of January and while this is a better race, a repeat isn’t impossible.
Selections | (3) Jema Teukgeup (6) Sinbu (5) Gwacheonui Byeol (7) Queen Street |
Next Best | 8, 4 |
Fast Start | 1, 3, 5, 6 |
Race 2: Class 5 (1000M) Handicap / KRW 40 Million
Competitive race here. (5) BROWN ROSE got her maiden win at class and distance on February 2nd coming from the middle of the pack to score by half a length. She carries a bit more weight today but could repeat. (3) RAON KEVIN was stepped up to 1300M for his first try at this level back in January but despite leading for much of the way, he weakened badly in the final furlong. Back down in trip today and following eight weeks off, he should be much better this time. He’ll be setting the early pace along with (4) OK DEURIM whose form maybe turning for the better after an encouraging 4th last time. The experienced (1) PARTY POWER is another who could go close in company likely this.
Selections | (5) Brown Rose (3) Raon Kevin (4) Ok Deurim (1) Party Power |
Next Best | 9, 6 |
Fast Start | 3, 4 |
Race 3: Class 5 (1000M) Handicap / KRW 40 Million
Another small but competitive heat of this class 5 handicap. (5) ACE TRIPLE was a good winner over the distance on a very wet track six weeks ago. He’s up in class today but should be on pace once more and he can repeat. (7) SEMYEONG GISANG is up in class too having scored in similar fashion last time and while he perhaps has a bit more to find, is firmly in the hunt as well. (6) WINT SEVEN never really recovered from a bit of bumping at the start on his latest outing and can go better today. (1) LAO JIN is one start into a comeback following five months off and can improve here. (3) QUEEN FORCE ONE is another who got a bad trip on her last start and could be better here.
Selections | (5) Ace Triple (1) Lao Jin (7) Semyeong Gisang (6) Wint Seven |
Next Best | 3 |
Fast Start | 1, 5, 6, 8 |
Race 4: Class 6 (1300M) Allowance / KRW 40 Million
Three-year-old maidens only here. (3) CHEONJI POKPUNG has been figuring things out in his latest two and while he was beaten seven-lengths into 2nd by a good winner a month ago, today could be his day. He’s well drawn to lead early and can go all the way. (8) GALAXY PEACE got a bad trip last time but still overcame it for an improved 5th on what was her first try at this distance and she may have more progress in her today. (4) DAE YEONGWANG has been knocking at the door for some time now and shouldn’t be too far away while (1) MASON, who stumbled at the start last time but still ran well, and (7) VICTORY KING are others who can at least compete for places.
Selections | (3) Cheonji Pokpung (8) Galaxy Peace (4) Dae Yongwang (7) Victory King |
Next Best | 1, 2 |
Fast Start | 2, 3 |
Race 5: Class 4 (1300M) Handicap / KRW 60 Million
(1) DAEGUNUI CHANG has a 3rd and two runner-up finishes from three starts so far and he is the pick to make his breakthrough here. From the inside gate, he can get on pace early and can go all the way. (5) WORLD STARK looks to be the main danger. He was narrowly beaten in 2nd place in a tight three-way finish on January 26th at this distance and has every chance of pushing on today. (7) DAEGUNUI GEOM was sent up to 1700M for his latest start but got a dreadful start and was scarcely involved. He had previously shown some ability though and can be better here. (10) KEY FACTOR and (11) PREEM VISION are others who have shown enough to suggest they can be competitive.
Selections | (1) Daegunui Chang (5) World Stark (10) Key Factor (11) Preem Vision |
Next Best | 7, 4 |
Fast Start | 1, 7 |
Race 6: Class 4 (1000M) Handicap / KRW 60 Million
A mixture of locally bred horses who have won their way up from class 6 against still untested imports. Of the locals, (6) BEST CHAPEL is up in class having run a solid 2ndover this distance at domestic class 5 in January. He’s had nine weeks off since then and can go one better here. (11) GREEN K has won three times already but after going cold at the turn of the year finds herself down in class today. She did though look good when winning a trial last month and today could suit. Among the imports, (9) THE SPIKER is… Read more of this post
