Mitchell McKenzie Stakes – 2024

Track: Good 4 Weather: Showers

Epimeles tries to remain undefeated on returning and should get every chance from the pole position. Public Attention was a nice winner on debut and the form looks good for this. Soli Bolli has done little wrong to date and should play a major part in this race while Red Sea resumes off a break and should go close in this field if wound up and ready to go.

1. Althoff (9)

Scratched.

2. Epimeles (1)

Capable runner who looks to remain undefeated. Query on the jockeys form but has barrier 1 and looks capable of taking this out.

3. Public Attention (2)

Strong debut win and the form has been franked since. Brown has options from barrier 2 and brings the right upside to be winning this.

4. Bosustow (3)

Can’t have.

5. Red Sea (5)

Market watch off the back of a solid second in open company in NZ. Has claims from the good draw and respect it more if any money comes late.

6. Sergeant Major (4)

Resumes with Lane in the saddle. Hails from the leading Maher stable and this race suits.

7. Angel Capital (6)

Another that resumes and showed plenty on debut. Form tapered off a bit but has the talet.

8. Stoli Bolli (8)

Both runs have been good to date. Last start bumped into Daggers and that looks the right form for this race. Needs luck from the draw but should be going close in this field.

9. Extreme Diamond (7)

Prefer others.

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