Bank on Tigray Express
May 15, 2025
BACK-TO-BACK upsetters, PRINCE KAZAIRE and QUEEN OF SOUL, struck at 9-1 and 10-1, respectively, putting most Reggae 6 bets to sleep last Saturday, ensuring a decent payout of $394,086.
With a mandatory payout set for Labour Day, Saturday's starting mark of $10.1 million for a single-winner ticket is worth breaking the bank this weekend.
Take a swing at the opening event for four-year-olds, non-winners of two races, mainly inconsistent runners who won at age three last year but have spent this season hunting a win, which makes them suspect to horses who might have got off the mark at four and are not as exposed.
TIGRAY EXPRESS could very well be the lone banker on the Reggae 6, down in class among $500,000 claimers after being taken for $1 million by Peter Parsard two Saturdays ago when finishing fourth behind BURNING VALOUR, SIR JOHN and I REALISE.
It's hard to separate NOBLE SOVEREIGN and SUCCESSFUL MAN in the third. The same goes for BRISCOE and BADDA DAN COVID in the fourth.
Similar to the opening event, the fifth is loaded with possibilities, which could be decided on soundness. As such, back-to-form MAGICAL MOOD, speedy JAGUAR, course-specialist EMPEROROFTHECATS, IRISH WISH, BUGATTI and well-drawn RHOSA THE WARRIOR should all be carried over the straight course.
Maidens MINEOLA and KUSMI should not be separated in the Reggae 6 closer as their trainers, Jason DaCosta and Anthony Nunes, continue their battle atop the stakes standings.
