Thoroughbred Breeders Stakes – 2024

Track: Good  Weather: Fine

Ameena has been super impressive to date and can go right on with things here. Silmarillion has the tough draw to overcome but is well placed against this opposition. Tobeornottobe will need luck from the barrier but is going along well and can give this a shake. Yes Lulu hasn’t been far away in 2 starts to date.

1. Silmarillion (11)

Tough draw but hit the line well last start and gets Lane to steer. Danger to the favourite and goes in the mix.

2. Flattered (6)

Can’t have.

3. Tobeornottobe (9)

Racing well but has a tough draw and needs to find a length or two to threaten. Leaning to others.

4. Ameena (1)

Has been super impressive to date and looks hard to beat again from the good draw. Loaded with upside and looks the right price in what is a similar field to last run.

5. Flyer (3)

Can’t have.

6. Reasonable Point (10)

Leaning to others.

7. In Her Eyes (7)

Can’t have.

8. Yes Lulu (12)

Racing well but does have to overcome the wide draw. Solid claims with the right steer.

9. Blue Allure (2)

Seems mammoth odds coming off the back of a handy 2nd placing to the favourite. $14.00 to run a drum in a comparable field, seems a very big price against these and gets the kind draw to boot.

10. Miss Swift (8)

Sound on debut but harder here. Can’t have.

11. Durova (5)

Trials have been good and maps well from the draw. Market watch.

12. Lincolnshire (4)

Market watch on debut.

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