Chased leaders, effort halfway, weakened final furlong
Mid-division, ridden 2f out, kept on one pace
Made all, went clear final furlong, easily
Rated 78, Blue Suede has obvious claims in this company but that was also the case when failing to land the odds here a week ago. She was beaten only a short-head but it could still pay to take her on with the newcomer KIRIBATI. The son of Poet's Voice has plenty of speed in his pedigree and it would be no surprise if Mark Johnston’s colt proved good enough given the remainder make little appeal with Fethiye Boy preferred to stablemate Viola Park.
