Best From The West - July 22

3 minute read

Highlight of racing in Perth is the Belmont Classic and we’re going to stick with last week’s winner.

Gatting backs up for the third week in a row. After being unlucky in the Aquanita Stakes, he came from last seven days ago to get up late.

The double back up will help him in this race. You just have to go back to his WA Derby win to see the longer the race the better.

The Belmont Oaks winner will be well liked but the gelding has her measure we reckon over further.

Earlier in the day, Atacama Sky looks to have found a race to suit on resumption.

The Simon Miller three year old has trialled nicely in the lead up and has his two wins over this journey.

His racing pattern is to be forward and that generally suits in races over the short course.

We might get surprisingly good odds.

In a three-way finish Jackpot Prince maintained his consistent form in winning his third race from his last four starts in taking out his first stakes success here in good style. He settled at the tail of the 13-horse field, went deep on straightening and then stormed home to grab a narrow but impressive victory. Persian Princess raced in eighth place, on the rails, got through to fourth on straightening, took the lead at 200 metres only to be caught on the post for a good second. The favourite Gatting raced in second last place, behind a steady tempo, went deep (under riding) approaching the home turn, put in a good run (wide out) before fighting on well for a close up third.
