I Have had a bet on Suesa (20/1 Paddy Power, Betfair, Sky Bet) for the commonwealth cup today before her run at Chantilly in the group 3 Prix Texanita over 6F.
She was very impressive on seasonal reappearance at Chantilly on the 20th April, pulling away to win by 3 and a half lengths in her 3rd career start in a 5 and a half furlong race. She was never stronger than at the line in her first race on a sound surface and it was nothing more than a hands and heels steering job for Peslier.
This form was then franked by the 4 and three quarter length 3rd Ideal beauty, who won the Group 3 5F sprint at Longchamp yesterday.
The Racing Post gave Suesa a rating of 113 for this run at Chantilly, if you add in the 3lb filly allowance then she has run to a figure of 116 according to the racing post in only her 3rd ever career start. To put that into context in the market, Campanelle's best ever rating is 114 at Deauville last year, Supremacy's is 118 in the Middle Park, Dragon Symbol achieved 111 last time out and Alcohol Free ran 113 in the Cheveley Park, Measure of magic 106, lucky vega 116. So at this point in her career Suesa is coming out very close to the top of the ratings with allowances factored in.
I am hoping for her to come out and win easily in her first start over 6f today and for connections to say they are looking to take up her entry in the commonwealth cup.
EDIT:
Another hand and heels job in a group 3 and shortening all round, best priced 10's with paddy and betfair and as short as 6's with hills. Happy with that and hoping for George Strawbridge to send her here next.
