 OVERVIEW

A small but quality field assembles here for the 2020 Canterbury Stakes. Amongst them are Group 1 winners; The Bostonian, Begood Toya Mother and Alizee plus improving horses on the up Savatiano and Standout, who are looking to secure their first Group one victory.

SPEED MAP

Looks to be a mad dash for the small field over 1300m here with a number of quick beginners engaged. The three most likely to contest for the lead will be; White Moss, Savatiano and Begood Toya Mother. Standout and The Bostonian should be the next pair. Alizee & Mister Sea Wolf should round at the field.

KEY RUNNERS

  1. ALIZEE ($3.40)

Resumed solidly with a 1.5L 2nd to star performer Standout in the Expressway despite being cramped and sitting last rounding the turn. Followed that up with a strong victory on Soft ground in the Group 2 Apollo Stakes, defeating the likes of Dreamforce and Happy Clapper. Should improve here and won’t be far away.

  1. SAVATIANO ($3.40)

Really impressed me first up, blowing away the field at Rosehill by nearly 3L in the Group 2 Millie Fox. This race is no doubt harder but she can improve here second up as she did last preparation to win the Group 2 Tristarc Stakes. Up to this.

  1. STANDOUT ($2.50)

Couldn’t have resumed any better first up, scoring a dominant 1.5L victory over a class field and stamping himself as a runner to follow this Autumn. Went from strength-to-strength last prep as he worked through the grades and will look to keep on improving this prep.

BLUEY’S PICK

  1. STANDOUT ($2.50)

Can’t go past this Ryan trained runner, who looks to have some serious talent. His first up win was outstanding against a quality field and should only be fitter here. He’ll look to sit off the hot pace and power over the top of them late. The sky is the limit for this colt and he’ll be looking for back-to-back wins.
