RACE DAY INTERNATIONAL

Toby Darby heads to Japan for a prestigious race from Chukchi as he previews Japan’s Champions Cup.

06:40 CHUKYO - CHAMPIONS CUP

Plenty of these will be looking to make a bold bid from the front, none more so so than favourite Narukami. He’s only lost once in 6 starts and looks a very talented animal. There will be no easy lead today though with plenty looking to set the pace, therefore I am going to look for a closer and this is Luxor Cafe, he was well behind Narukami last time but with a more contested pace likely, things can fall differently today. Wilson Tesoro is not to be dismissed and you are likely getting bigger odds because of his below par effort, he is better than that and can be forgiven one poor run.

LUXOR CAFE (WIN)
