What the professionals' say

Professionals voice their opinions on the Sprinters’ Cup and the Stayers’ Cup to be run on Saturday.

Ms. Arti Doctor: For the Sprinters’ Cup, my choice is Nefyn; the Stayers’ Cup looks very open.

Richard Hughes: In the Sprinters’ Cup, my mount Bullseye is in form and should go close.

Bezan Chenoy: I hope to win the Sprinters’ Cup with Nefyn — everyone has to beat him. In the Stayers’ Cup, I think it should be Native Knight.

Narendra Lagad: In the Sprinters’ Cup, I like Nefyn. My ward, Native Knight, a runner in the Stayers’ Cup, has travelled well and taken nicely to the track, so I hope to win.

Vijay Singh: Bullseye is my selection for the Sprinters’ Cup; while everyone is talking about Native Knight in the Stayers’ Cup, I have two equally matched runners, Unleashed and Abriella, and I hope to beat the favourite.
