Stay with Sketel
Both the Pick-9 and Super-6 start anew at Caymanas Park today after failing to survive Wednesday's race meet.

The Pick-9 will embrace all the races on the nine-race programme which commences at 1:10 p.m., while the Super-6 will be conducted from race four to nine.

We look at the Super-6 which gets under way with a four-year-old and up maiden condition race to be contested by eight starters, including top contenders EXPLOSIVE CAT, BIG BARGAIN and our selection ROLL THE DICE, who was a narrow loser to RIVER STYX recently. The latter will be ridden by champion jockey Omar Walker, who returns from a four-day suspension.

KING OF THE TRACK, who was narrowly beaten by KIKO over the round five course last Saturday, gets the nod over QUEEN OF THE SEA and SLIM TING in the fifth race over 1200 metres. And the recent runaway winner SKETEL (Walker up) looks a banker in her bid for the hat-trick in the sixth for the Purcell Keith Trophy over 1500 metres in honour of the 2008 champion groom.
