    Excellent video and in spite of my love of Patches O'Houlihan and me scouting him as a two year old I am going to do the one thing in this race I have never done before and that is bet against him. My choice for victory in the Kennedy Road Stakes - Grade 2 race has to be Nobals and I will explain why.
    #1). I scouted Nobals at Woodbine in 2022 as a 3 year old and predicted back then he would be a special horse. It turned out that in that year he obliterated the track record as a 3 year old in the Woodstock Stakes previously held by my favourite horse of all time - The legendary Pink Lloyd. Pink Lloyd's old track record on Tapeta for 6 furlongs was 1:08.05. Nobals smashed that with a ridiculous time of 1:07.63. Imagine how fast he can run now that he is a 5 year old and in his prime? The best Patches has ever done in his career thus far is in the mid to high 1:08 range. Point being, Patches simply isn't as fast as Nobals if both are at their best.
    #2) Nobals has competed against the best in the world and won which makes him a World Champion and Patches is nowhere near that level of notoriety.
    #3) Larry Rivelli has been quoted as saying he believes Nobals prefers the synthetic.
    #4) Sure, Nobals has not had a good year this year.....YET .... However, he has been ripping it in training and is poised to come back with a great race on Saturday and he is definitely due! Rivelli also mentioned how well his horse has been training and fully expects a booming race out of him on Saturday.
    #5) The only knock against Nobals is a lack of consistency. That being said, as already mentioned, everything is coming together for him at the right time for him to produce a fantastic performance on Saturday.
    It breaks my heart to go against Patches but this is the one time that would be the exception.

      @@stevenschembri1288 appreciate you watching!
      Some excellent points raised about Nobals, I think it all comes to down to the sort of form he’s in at the moment. So far this season he hasn’t been at his best like you say, but he’s more than capable of bouncing back for sure.
      I’d be interesting to see where he goes if he were to win this weekend, either way, we have a cracking race on our hands!

    As predicted, Nobals WINS the Kennedy Road Stakes! Next stop, Hong Kong for the HK$26-million ($3.35-million U.S.) Sprint.
