There's only 1 pound between their merit ratings, so the handicappers don't quite see it as being that much of a "fact."

Magic...I know that's a bit of a baffler to me.lol..

It scares me a lil that I'm going against you, but ill take my chancesX(

golden Chateau fixed place

Why is it a baffler? Dancewiththedevil is a fantastic mare in her own right. I'm not saying she will be Igugu, I am saying that it would be unwise to expect a one horse race especially if The Devil gets her right type of going. Trust me, the way she quickened to win the Summer Cup might have given Igugu a lot to think about, and that's a compliment to The Devil, not an insult to Igugu.(

No doubt mate,I understand now..Sorry sometimes I get carried away when it comes to Igugu.lol.. Its like I own her..lol..

I love DWTD and will back her anyday her summer cup run was pure class

Really Hibs? You're pulling our legs, right?

Hibs is teasing us. He won the compo principally with Happy Landing.....:

Does anyone know what the weight allocations for the race will be? Is it a handicap or WFA?

Fancied DWTD strogly last year and she dissapointed, will be a quality field if the Top 5 stay in.

WFA

Thanks, the 2 top fillies must be massive runners.

No, it isn't. It's a conditions race with non-cumulative penalties for winning a Gr 1 (2.5 kgs) or a Gr 2 (1 kg) in the 18 months before the issuing of the weights, which means the two big girls will meet at level weights. It's roughtly similar to the Met (where nowadays there's a once-off penalty for a Gr 1 win)
