Under Handicap conditions, Stormy Weather's weight is a blessing and Hambletonian Stable's record-breaking gelding is out to claim his sixth winner in 2007 in the Palacios Memorial Handicap.

An incredible feat which is truly out of the ordinary, Stormy Weather has already raced 10 times this year - some horses just thrive on being raced over, and over, and over again.

In any other definition, 10 races before the halfway mark of the year should cause permanent damage, yet this multiple Stakes winning famous star looks set to add another win to his name.

Headlining the cause to over-run the favourite is Afternoon Delite, winner of the Fort Bend County Stakes at Sam Houston and is suddenly gaining Stakes-capable form for his owner Mfm Stables.

Winning by a length from Humachi on March 31, the three-year-old is working strongly and should impress under the circumstances.

Weigelia is a lightly-raced colt from the T Gran Stable team, winning by 2 lengths in his Maiden victory at Ruidosa, but the increase in class to Stakes company will be a test of epic proportions.

Silent Prayer has dished up a pair of bullet works at Beulah in readiness for his duel with Stormy Weather and under Handicap conditions will be the second elect for this six-furlong contest on dirt. His win at Gulfstream by 3 lengths was most impressive and will be greatly suited to this field.

Rounding out the Palacios Memorial Handicap line-up are the recently bargain-basement claimer Phantom Jet, Mountaineer monger Smoken Section, and the outclassed Manco I.
