The Wire Finish Cup Mile

Welcome to the second running of the The Wire Finish Cup Mile! Track conditions are fair. The sun is shinning bright and the track is looking simply pristine. Today we will see the running of the racing industries top racers and boy are excited to see how this big event turns out! We have a thriller lined up for you today – four fantastic horses all ready to take on the mile. Let’s meet the runners in todays race.

In Gate One, Stride Of Perfection have added a sneaky runner – this filly is a variable leg type filly, she can race anywhere in the field, and the came into her own late in her two year old season and has been able to progress to grade three this season, remaining undefeated so far! Will her record as a three year old be a clean sweep? We will find out today.
In Gate Two is another colt against the big guns – three year old Akita Rose entrant, Canjun Moon. The owner has gone with the no workout tactic – but is that the best idea? The colt likes to stay towards the back of the pack and take up the rear – on the day this might be a good thing as he saves momentum and performs a big stretch run – he’s a big boy with a lot of power for a grade five runner.
In Gate Three we have Firebird – the Intrepid grade 4 third place finisher in the Breeders Cup Mile behind Executioner’s Apprentice – this horse can run as a closer or a front runner, but by the looks of the field today, he will probably take the lead – but it is all down to the jockey and what they decide. He’s been working well this colt has, and he was perfect consistency this year – will they take the win in this race? We’ll find out, just one more horse to enter the track.
Now here we are, the big boy, the heavy favourite to take this race – the very uniquely marked Grade One four-year-old stallion himself, Executioner’s Apprentice. This horse won the Breeder’s Cup Mile last year, and placed in the Spring Cup Grade One Turf this year, after winning the Unicorn Horn Turf Mile. There are high expectations for this colt, and he is heavily backed today. Let’s have one last look at the odds.

Executioners Apprentice – 1-10F
Lynara’s Kingdom – 4-1 2F
Firebird – 9-1
Canjun Moon - 13-1

They’re all loading… set…
And they’re racing in The Wire Finish Cup Mile, and as expected, Firebird breaks quickly and goes for that lead, Canjun Moon started slow and is at the back of the pack. Firebird takes that lead and is under a strong hold by Michael Landing – but he takes command and is powering on the turf nicely now, taking the first quarter in a very quick twenty one and three. Round the first turn and Firebird is leading, Executioner’s Apprentice is right there in behind him, Lynara’s Kingdom has settled nicely behind these two and as expected Canjun Moon just running at his own pace, he’s about five lengths of the lead right now as they go the half in fourty four and one. Half a mile left to run and Firebird is content on that lead, Tobias Lancaster hasn’t moved on the champ yet, but he is running along very well in behind Firebird – Lynara’s Kingdom is lengthening her stride now but hasn’t been asked to move a step as they enter the turn, and Canjun Moon is receiving a shake of the reins now from jockey Aaron Phillip. Rounding the turn into the stretch and CANJUN MOON makes his move! He moves into the centre coming with a three wide sweep, he’s trying to get past Lynara’s Kingdom and he succeeds but Amber hasn’t asked the filly to move yet, and TOBIAS SAYS GO ON THE CHAMP, he’s coming along side Firebird with a furlong left to run and now LYNARA’S KINGDOM IS COMING WITH HER RUN! AMBER BLACK ASKS THE FILLY TO GO, AND SHE’S GOING! IT’S THREE IN LINE, CANJUN MOON CAN’T KEEP UP BUT LYNARA’S KINGDOM AND EXECTIONER’S APPRENTICE ARE PULLING AWAY FROM FIREBIRD TO A TWO LENGTH ADVANTAGE, THEY’RE COMING DOWN TO THE WIRE, IT’S GOING TO BE DESPERATELY CLOSE…. AND…. THE FILLY DID IT! LYNARA’S KINGDOM holds of Breeder’s Cup Mile winner Executioner’s Apprentice in a head bobbing, pulsating finish to the Mile!

Win: Lynara’s Kingdom (nose)
Place: Executioner’s Apprentice (length)
Show: Firebird (two lengths)
Fourth: Canjun Moon

Her workout and page detail won me over Dante, sorry :P
I love App to pieces though, don’t ever forget that. It was tight between the top three I have to say!
Kirsten, PLEASE work Canjun Moon. –gets on knees and pleads- He would’ve done very well with a few workouts this year.
