Applying the stats…
Looking at those who’d yet to run above Class 2, were running at the same distance or down in distance from last start, with 0-2 wins over the distance.. 9/12 (9/94 runners, 25p)… only a guide as always but would point to a longlist of eight, if upholding…
Acquitted, Jumaira Bay, River Nymph, Karibana, Walhaan, Harrison Point, Greenside, Kaeso
Of those… a positive for 4 or 5 YO, 1-3 career wins, 0-2 handicap wins…
Acquitted, Jumaira Bay, River Nymph, Karibana
