AUSTIN HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD Out 9 Metres
Strong pace with Eighty Light Years pushing forward along with Gracious Express from an outside gate. EIGHTY LIGHT YEARS (1) led them up and kicked away to win by 1L over this course and distance 34 days ago. That win rates highly in this event and this looks a similar set up despite the rise in weight. Can get to the front again and prove very hard to run down. GRACIOUS EXPRESS (7) disappointed last time out when beaten 2L but happy to think that was due to a wet track. He was right behind Eighty Light Years two starts ago and meets him better at the weights today. Wide draw is a concern but with luck, he can go very close to winning. AMAZING VICTORY (3) drops back to 1200m today after some solid efforts over further of late. Karis Teetan hops into the saddle as he drops in weight for today's assignment. Figures stack up nicely and he's not to be discounted. STELLAR EXPRESS (2) didn't seem to handle the track and was caught wide and without cover as well. Expecting a better effort this time around.
