No 5 Gold For the King
Only five horses for this $ 100,000 purse and the options are slim. No 1 Life In Shambles, with two wins in a row, is the horse to beat but this claiming horse will have to answer for a second consecutive time in a stake and we must admit that he had everything for him at his last start. No 4 Always Sunshine is a stakes regular who has had the misfortune of experiencing his worst start in early November at Churchill in a G1 race and during his last start, after being involved in a duel, he finished third by two lengths. No 5 Gold For The King is the fastest in the group when he is in his element and a six furlong run is the ideal fit. During these races on 6½ Furlongs and 7 Furlongs, he passes 1:09:00 at 6 Furlongs and if he is able to make a duplicate on 6 Furlongs, he will be at the top step.
