This is a blog, and indeed TrueNicks is not supposed to be a handicapping service — but we are seriously going to have to reconsider this after the win of Sebring in the Golden Slipper Stakes (Aus-I) on the weekend!
It was back on the 20th of January, some 13 weeks ago, that we first mentioned the then-non stakes-winning Sebring as a likely Golden Slipper candidate.
Under a masterful ride by Glen Boss, the son of More Than Ready (TrueNicks, SRO) — who rated an A+ by TrueNicks before he ever stepped onto a racetrack — came with a well-timed run to win the richest 2-year-old race in the world by just on a neck.
Just remember … you heard it here first.
