The 2010 Crown Promenade Stakes field features 16 quality mares following the scratching of #1 Tallow, #10 Avionics, #14 Sunday Rose, #16 Miss Octopussy and #19 Cat’s Pyjamas.

In a fairly wide open betting market, the current favourite to win today’s Crown Promenade Stakes is Jerezana paying $4.40 at Luxbet.

Originally one of the emergencies for Race 2 at Flemington today, the Peter Snowden-trained Jerezana has come into contention with a number of other runners withdrawn and is now the shortest-priced contender.

A promising Lonhro mare, Jerezana is resuming after a five month spell and after a consistent autumn that included a fourth in the Dane Ripper at Eagle Farm, is well backed to resume with a victory.

However, with a number of other classy competitors in the Crown Promenade the Races.com.au team are tipping an upset and have selected De Lightning Ridge to win.
