2010 Red Anchor Stakes Field

October 21st, 2010

The 2010 Red Anchor Stakes field is out, with a small field of 9 runners that is sure to have punters excites. The race this year is known as the 1300 Australia Stakes, but the Group 3 sprint will still be run at 1200 metres at set weights plus penalties, and is only open to 3 year olds.

Some of the notable entries in the 2010 Red Anchor Stakes field are Lone Rock and Blink, though their wider barrier draws will likely see them at longer prices when the odds come out at Luxbet.

Lone Rock has a barrier 6 draw and the second top weight at 56kg, but he also won his first Group race run in the Champagne Stakes this year. This was followed by a last place performance in the Thoroughbred Club Stakes, but this was definitely out-of-character for Lone Rock. The variables for Lone Rock in this run are all either the same or better than they were in the Champagne Stakes, so you really have to ask yourself how can he lose?

Blink is starting from barrier 9 and will carry the bottom weight of 53.5kg. This will be his first Group race run, but he has had some good success in lesser races, including a 1200 metre win at Moonee Valley last start. A Danny O’Brien prospect, Blink looks a good chance to place in the 2010 Red Anchor Stakes.

If you want to bet on the 2010 Red Anchor Stakes, then we think Luxbet is the best choice to go with. Offering big bonus bets and very fair odds, this bookie is a great new place to punt online.
