The Grade 1 World Pools Moment Of The Day Champion Stakes has the makings of a brilliant contest. Lucky Lad does not have the best of draws but was a facile winner of the Grade 1 Gold Medallion. He is unbeaten and has hardly been challenged in this four starts to date. Giving others hope is that he steps up to this trip for the first time from a draw that has beaten some of the best in the past. On the other hand, the unbeaten Main Defender has won both starts in good fashion for his new stable and given his pedigree the step up in trip should be right up his alley. He also has the benefit of a favourable draw. Sanderingham Summit has drawn one outside of Lucky Lad and came from an almost impossible position when winning the Grade 2 Golden Horseshoe on Hollywoodbets Durban July day. He has an electric turn of pace as he showed when coming from last so the draw may not be too much of a disadvantage. These three look the main contenders.
