Great win for Kalypso last night at 6/1, but can four aces pull off a similar result tonight?

A fantastic late surge by ‘Kalypso’ last night saw the 6/1 shot pick up a fine win as predicted. Tonight a horse at similar odds of 11/2 could pull off the same result. ‘Four aces’ has won 5 times out of 42 runs but has also notched up 23 placed finishes, thats a whopping 55% , not bad a tall. In two races on fast in November she finished 3rd and 2nd especially unlucky on the 24th of November when she was pipped at the post by Hang Seng.

This 4 year old fillie has frustrated the owners ‘John Ellis’ recently though with a string of poor runs. Hopefully that off colour patch is behind ‘Four Aces’ and she can deliver in the 9:55 in Canada.

If the Queen is reading this put the crown jewels on ‘Luxor Princess’!

I am an anti-royalist so I shouldn’t be dissapointed if ‘Luxor Princess’ failed to get a good run! But in all seriousness these are very nice odds indeed for the third favourite in the 8:48 race from Canada. Well used to this distance of 7 furlongs the old fillie finished 2nd out of 14 in Dubai. In 54 runs she has won on 10 occassions and has been placed 23 times. 3 of those 10 wins came on fast going so the odds of 17/2 seem like a good deal from our old friends the bookies. As I’ve said before there’s something about these odds which sees the horse on them do very well. Maximas will hope ‘Luxor Princess’ gets a good start in Canada, if she does anything can happen, good each way potential.

Two weeks since El Burro ran, can he do well at attratcive odds?

El Burro was bought from the sales ring on the 2nd of November. In 6 runs in November he won once and was placed on 4 times. Most of these runs were on fast going so he won’t have a problem on fast going this evening. The last run for El Burro was on the 25th of November when he finished 3rd out of a field of 14 and it seems the english translation meaning ‘the donkey’ is a bit harsh. A consisitent solid performer the odds for the El Zorro trained colt for this evening’s 8:12 race are 13/1. This will be a slightly shorter distance than El Burro is used to but I still fancy him to get a placed finish.
