summary


Depending on how Splendour And Gold goes in the third event, newcomer SOLAR WAI WAI might be worth a play in this race as he comes through the same turf trial and also performed with merit. Interestingly, Zac Purton has done all the work on him leading in to his debut and he clearly feels this galloper is worth sticking with. GOLDEN MISSION had a trial at Happy Valley where he moved well and he looks well-prepared ahead of his debut run. The wide draw of 11 makes his task a little more difficult however and on my map he could be back and wide. BINGO is well-exposed but his second to Hard Promise had positives, with there being a fair gap back to the third-placed horse and if a lack of experience costs the newcomers then Bingo, who will be up on speed, might be there to take advantage as a race-fit galloper. SUPER STAR is another obvious contender, but it has been two months between runs. He showed enough ability in his two starts to win again, but in early markets he looks more than short enough. Solar Wai Wai is the main play, albeit a small one and Golden Mission is worth a ‘speck’ too.

BINGO can work forward from barrier 10 and set a GOOD speed. BULLISH BROTHER is drawn to sit close by along with BREAK RECORD and SOLAR WAI WAI.
