Tomorrow's nine-race programme at Caymanas Park offers a Pick-9 carryover of $2.2 million, a situation that could result in a payout in excess of $3.5 million.

The Pick-9 embraces all nine races beginning at 12:45 p.m. Meanwhile, the Pick-6 embraces races four to nine. It starts anew with the guaranteed minimum of $500,000.

The Super-6 gets under way with a competitive-looking, high-claiming race in which the down-in-class pair of SUPER NATURAL and NUMERO UNO, both dropping from overnight allowance company, along with NASATOL and MY PLEASURE are leading lights in the eight-strong field.

Any from the above-mentioned quartet is capable of winning. NASATOL was not disgraced on February 3 when finishing five lengths fifth to EXPLOSIVE PEAK in an overnight allowance race over this his favourite trip and will be bang in contention throughout.

This grey gelding had won his four previous races and now back among his peers, gets the nod over SUPER NATURAL and NUMERO UNO.

The fifth race again over the straight for four-year-olds and up (non winners of three) should provide keen competition among the quartet of YOSHI, ASKAWOMAN, WHITE DIAMOND (loves the course) and super fit WILD AT HEART, who last won over the course on January 6 and looks the one best equipped to pull it off from his favourable high-number draw.

CAPTAIN BONE, now dropped to $160,000 claiming from as high as overnight allowance company, looks hard to oppose in the sixth race over 10 furlongs. This American six-year-old horse, who won the Red Stripe Mile some years ago, has worked fairly well and should win from THE MAGICIAN and MICHAEL POWER.

TAKE FIVE (Shane Ellis up) looks the right choice seventh race for maiden three-year-olds, while it should be Miracle Man's half sister, the unbeaten SO BLESSED (working well) in the eighth, the Hot Line Stakes feature over 1200 metres for native bred three-year-old fillies, and SENOR GATO in the ninth.
