Guineas entrants on ‘Easy Street’

With still one week to go before the $300,000 race over 1800 metres, the three-year-olds were only allowed to do pace work yesterday.

Seen out yesterday were Hurricane Watch, My Leah, Mister Kingston, Mission King, Super Gem, Dring Brinks, Be Nice, Bravo, Achilles Of Troy and Enchanted Alex.

But Leonidas from the Dachin Racing Stables trained by Christopher Prime, stole the morning’s spotlight with a sizzling gallop over 100 metres.

The Jamaican-bred four-year-old who disappointed last time out, stopped the clock at one minute 02.3 seconds for the run.

Another good gallop came from Russian Dancer who went over the 1000 metres trip to be timed in one minute 04.4 seconds.

Newcomer Tap To The Tune sprinted 800 metres in a good 50.0 seconds, while Straight Ahead was clocked in 36.4 seconds for an t00 metres gallop.
