Hard to see beyond SK and AC, the two best sprinters in the world.

I feel Sacred Kingdom may get his revenge for his defeat over 1000 in the Centenary Sprint Cup two weeks ago. The extra 200m will suit him better than Absolute Champion, and I think he was unlucky, see what you think...

The forecast is up - Sacred Kindom wins convincingly from Absolute Champion, with Scintillation third. Winner's time 1.08.6.

Of course, no chance of having a bet on the race at my local bookmakers.
 
Damn missed that too - forgot to put a bet on Sacred Kingdom last night!! Bet he was pretty short on BF though
