RACE QUALITY:
|
A new race in 2002 and started out as the 'Caernarvon Stakes'. After three
years as a Listed event it becomes a Group 3 in 2005. The winner has had
to produce a performance level above 89 to win but the actuall winner rating
ranges up to 100.
The previous field have been variable with the 2002 edition notably strong.
The first four home in that race late won 1 x Group 1 race, 1 x Group
and 2 Group 1-2 places. The 2003 race was notably weaker and none of the
field won a notable race at 2yo. In 2004 the winner went on to be a Group
2 winner and the third finished placed in two Group2s.

TRAINERS:
|
A similar story to the previous races at the meeting with the 'absent'
trainers list as interesting as those with runners. None of the five stables
with the most 2yos have a runner and in particular R Hannon, M Channon
& B Meehan are represented. Between then they have provided
two of the three winners and 8 of the runners that have made the first
6 in the three years of the race. The only trainer who has had a place
previously is J Gosden who had the beaten favourite in 2003.
