Eclipse Stakes – 2023

Track: Good Weather: Fine

Ain’tnodeeldun will be hard to beat in this affair. It is shooting for 4 wins this prep and looks hard to beat. Just Folk hasn’t won for a long time and is under the odds but goes in the mix if recapturing its best form. Keats also is under the odds but has the right racing pattern to be in the finish. Junipal and Let’srollthedice both come off strong last start wins and are well placed in this field while Sir Lucan and Swords Drawn can both be improvers.

1. Just Folk (6)

Racing well this prep and has been around the mark but hasn’t won for a long time. Good place odds but hard to trust with the win.

2. Sir Lucan (5)

Should have its chance up on speed in this and can prove hard to beat. Good effort last run and can go close in this.

3. Ain’tnodeeldun (7)

Racing in super fashion and strikes another winnable race here to keep building the picket fence. Hard to beat and looks the right price in this field and can notch up another win.

4. Junipal (4)

Hard to catch but comes off a strong last start win and does find a race where plenty of runners have convictions. Goes in the mix.

5. Swords Drawn (2)

Needs to lift off the fresh run but did have no luck. Well drawn and gets the right race.

6. Keats (1)

Run down fresh. In its past starts has been beaten at prices of $6, $4.40,$4.40,$2.70 and $4.80 to name a few. Under the odds again in this. Prefer others.

7. Let’srollthedice (8)

Good last start win when having all the favours in the run. Strikes the right race to go on with things.

8. Danish Fortune (3)

Prefer others.

The following are the top 4 selections for this years race.

The track was rated as Soft 6.

Scratching: 3 Ain’tnodeeldun.
