SPANISH MOON 4th
Nothing in the UK for Saturday , but i've had a wee peek at the 4.00 over in HAMBURG where there is a G3 over 8f for 3yo+ and it's the winning age group thats caught the eye .
The race has been a G3 since 2002 and since then 3 year olds have only represented 25% [15/63] of the runners but have had
3 winners in that time as well as one 2nd and three 3rd placings , [ also there was one race where they had no runner of that age ]
There are only 2 three year olds running tomorrow and both come from the same stable .
Both are Maidens but don't let that put you off as the last 3 yo winner was also a Maiden and the 2002 winner was making his racecourse debut.
KITE HUNTER and NOBLE ALPHA are the 2 runners .
They raced against each other in the German 2000 Guineas where the former finished 2nd but only a neck in front of his stable companion.
Noble ALPHA has since was beaten over 4l in a G3 at Chantilly on Soft ground , noted as staying on but eased close home .
From what i can make out both may well be better suited by the G/F ground which it is at present .
Betfair have them at
9.0 and
5.5 respectively but to small amounts .
Will post tomorrow with any further news.
