2020 HYPERION STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS
Abdicator and The Velvet King are the major on speed runners. Material Man can be handy with Taxagano, Mizlecki and maybe Gatting goes forward now.
THE VELVET KING (7) looked the winner last time even though he blew the start. Just nailed on the line but if he gets away cleanly here he'll take stopping. MISSISSIPPI DELTA (11) hit the line nicely first-up and the extra trip will suit. She's dangerous.
ANGELIC RULER (12) loomed up as though she'd win last start but the run ended quickly. Always keep in mind. GATTING (3) should be close to his peak and PERFECT JEWEL (10) can't be left out after beating them all last time.
