    2023 NSW Miracle Mile Carnival

    Last night we had the Hondo Grattan which Republican Party from NZ won with ease. That qualifies him for the Chariots in a fortnight. Also qualifying last night was Captain Ravishing with his win in the 4yo Bonanza. Not sure if Lightning Dans 2nd in the Hondo qualifies him too.

    Next week in the Paleface I hope we see Leap To Fame, Catch A Wake and Akuta but not sure of their movements? They probably the 5 realistic winning chances for the Chariots.

    The winner of the Chariots get free entry to the Miracle Mile.

    Last night B D Joe also made an appearance at Menangle after being in form in NZ over the past few months so he adds another element to the carnival.

    Early final field prediction

    1. Captain Ravishing (Chariots win)
    2. Act Now
    3. Honolua Bay
    4. Mach Dan
    5. Bondi Lockdown
    6. Spirit of St Louis
    7. Expensive Ego
    8. I Cast No Shadow

    Nothing is ever predictable about the Miracle Mile though and I could be wrong in just 9 days as possibly none of these horses will even show up for the Newcastle Mile.

    10 off front. Wave front line once emerg come out.

    Pretty thin Chariots this year. Looks like only 3 realistic winning chances. Ravishing, Wave and Rep Party.

    I wonder how often Kate Gath has driven at Menangle?
    Clicking on her career stats tells us she has a 19% win rate, 17% place rate and 63% unplaced BUT it does not tell us how many races this is for

    Taking a line through Heza Son Of Agun, Catch A Wave might be a long way behind Captain Ravishing

    We don't have to worry about LM on the experience front

    There have always been huge wraps on both Catch A Wave and Bondi Lockdown
    Neither had good draws tonight and I am starting to appreciate how important draws are even on this big track
    CAW was never going to win from where he was with the last Q being run in 26.8
    The difference between being 1x3 and 1x5 was massive

    On that 2nd up run you have to say Bondi can break 1.50
    As for the Wave, we don't know for sure

    Braeview Kelly has the measure of the other mares

    BONDI can go well below 1.50... last year in the Chariots 1.47.6 whilst wide on the track. Give him the rail and he'll go 1.47 at full fitness. We don't know how fit he is, Luke has looked after him on both runs. The main difference since he changed stables is the driving style.
