The succession of Master Mascus, champion in three years last year, is open. They will be six young horses to run from the first round of the competition on Saturday over 1400m. One, two horses will make their debut in the Champ de Mars: Luke Skywalk, which is said the greater good, and Istiqraar.
Luke Skywalk, the stable Maingard, spruced establishment after the victory of Tales Of Bravery in Barbé last Sunday, has two wins in just four races in South Africa. It is considered one of the best 3-year-old imported this year. He has not done a lot of gallops in Port Louis, but it has a lot of work under his belt to the sea where he had the opportunity to work alongside Tales Of Bravery.Despite its 'top weight' of 61kg, it remains one of the candidates to victory.
Istiqraar is estimated by his entourage and he also has two victories in South Africa. But unlike Luke Skywalk, its rise on South African tracks was less impressive. But this is a horse who will talk about him once he found great shape.
Commodore Pete, who is two wins, goes in search of tripled. This is a very talented competitor who impressed the last time ending coasting. While he beat Raga Muffin, a very ordinary courier, at the finish, but especially the way he sprinted straight that gave an overview of his qualities.
Bingelela ran clear progress last week behind Umhlanga 1000m after complicated debut there this three weeks. It can finish in the money.
Forward Sweep enormously disappointed his debut behind Hail Atlantis. But since it gives the impression of being better about yourself. Moreover, it has made impressive gallops past two weeks.
Night Club still has everything to prove and he has shown so far, he will not have the easy part.
