White Moonstone

There are few horses in the flat racing world that carry around a set of statistics that make that horse feared from jockeys to trainers to fans. White Moonstone is one such horse and it's easy to forget that this creature is just a three-year-old Bay Fily.

White Moonstone is the product of the Saeed bin Suroor stables as the Eastern trainer continues to kick up a fuss in the flat racing world. Frankel is taking all of the attention in the sport at the moment but White Moonstone has a set of statistics that can match up.

Statistics of White Moonstone

The statistics of White Moonstone are phenomenal. This horse has raced four times in a short career and has won on every occasion. The first ride was at Ascot over six furlongs in July last year. This performance showcased all of the positive aspects of this horse.

The statistics of White Moonstone have remained so good because one of the main strengths of this horse is adaptability and consistency. Things such as ground and starting position don't mean much to this animal because Frankie Dettori can quickly correct the position at the start of a race.

White Moonstone Betting

White Moonstone betting should offer a little bit of value in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot. White Moonstone betting has always offered some value despite the record of the horse. The horse has only been odds on twice and those prices came in the last two races.

In the build up to Royal Ascot White Moonstone betting is going to become more frantic and urgent. The best tactic with White Moonstone betting is to get bets on as quickly as possible because the one hundred per cent win rate of this horse means the price is only going to go in one direction which is down.

Strengths of White Moonstone

One of the main strengths of White Moonstone is the trainer Saeed bin Suroor. Suroor has brought some revolutionary ideas into the world of training horses for flat races and it seems to be working. He also does the basics very well and this is important for the well being and attitude of the horse.

The fact this horse has only ever had one jockey in Frankie Dettori is also one of the strengths of White Moonstone. This allows the jockey and horse to develop a much stronger relationship. Dettori does not have half as much work to do riding this horse as a new jockey would coming in for a first ride.

Weaknesses of White Moonstone

Although this horse has a one hundred per cent record in flat races there are one or two weaknesses of White Moonstone to keep an eye on. This horse likes to sit at the back of a field before challenging late on in a race. This is a popular way of racing but dangerous considering the strength of good front running horses.

Another of the main weaknesses of White Moonstone is that this horse has not been put under heavy pressure in a high quality race. The biggest field of runners that White Moonstone has raced in is 11, which is nothing compared to some of the fields that will be racing in the high stakes races.
