The Plate Trial is an extremely difficult race to handicap, 8 of the 10 horse entered have a good chance of claiming top prize.
My top pick of the race is my stable star Southdale. Southdale will make his thrid career start tomorrow and is the 2nd choice in the morning line. The son of Street Cry ran a 89 Beyers in his last race, taken a 7F MSW event.
I am obviously bias toward Southdale but his last race was very impressive. Recently, I was reading the Southdale diary at Triple Dead Heat and I am very confident the horse is well prepare and ready to ran a big race tomorrow.
My 2nd choice in the race is Eye of the Leopard. I would be shocked if I can get anywhere near his 8-1 ML at post time. This Sam-Son farm homebred is also making his 3 career start tomorrow. He ran a big race last time out by wining a MSW at 1 1/16M, I was surprise to see him won it from gate to wire. The added distance will help and a good effort tomorrow will get him prime for the Queen's Plate in 3 weeks.
Thor's Piper is coming back with 2 weeks rest after breaking his maiden at 1 1/16M. Thor's Piper is bred to run all day and his full brother won this race a few years back. He should improve from his last out and at odds 12-1 he is a must use in the exotics.
My longshot of the race is #2 Rapid Release. I am very disappointed at Rapid Release, I thought he would had done much better since moving to Woodbine. His race at Keeneland back in April on turf was a key race but he seem to have trouble handling the Woodbine synthetic surface. The trainer jockey combo won the Plate last year on Not Bourbon and I have a ton of respect for Attfield. I will use him at all my tri tickets.
