| The field then presents a likeable set of newcomers with
solid profiles from trainers who will typically start a usable 2yo in their
earliest runners. Willie Jarvis has a mixed record with 2yos and bit below
average overall. But, his earliest runners will include most of the competent
2yos. He won a similar race to this at the course in 2002 with a newcomer
and in 2004 ran something called Fair Along in the equivalent race, what
ever became of him? His only runner before July in 2005 finished 2nd at
14/1 FTO and in 2006 the two early starters were placed including Oi Vay
Joe in this race. Last year he had one runner before the end of April with
Just Sort It who won at 25/1.
Given all of that you have to believe that Smokey Storm is an average
2yo winner during the season and also that he'll be mostly ready to show
what he can do here. He's by the new sire One Cool Cat who's two runners
to date have both managed to place. No surprise overall if he manages to
get in amongst the pair with experience and perhaps win if he has a bit
more class.
