summary


Things didn’t work out well for EAGLE at his last start but the drop back to 1000m might suit him. This would not be a race to launch in to, but if Eagle can attain a handy position without working over time then he gets a chance to win another race. STORM SIGNAL prevailed second-up this term over this course and distance and based on that performance, he is worth consideration again. E-SUPER simply went too hard when he last competed so the booking of Chad Schofield and exiting from a low draw is going help his cause. A potential over in this event looks to be LUCKY GUY. He comes through the same form reference as MEGA HEART and actually posted better closing sectionals. He is probably looking for the drop in class though and MONEY BOY might be a better option with a soft run on the back of the speed. All that said, this is a very competitive race that I’m not hugely confident about compared to other events on today’s card.

speed


There should be GOOD speed here with DRAGON PIONEER and E-SUPER competing for the early lead. STORM SIGNAL is drawn out but I expect will be asked to race handy. EAGLE might be able to tuck in behind the main speed with a clean getaway.
