GOING: G(4)

TABTOUCH - THE ROAD TO THE JERICHO CUP WA QUALIFIER 3100m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 2m Entire.  

Pace looks genuine from Fioreyes, Feels Hot and Oddoneout, closely attended by Mister Popcorn. Always a tricky race to assess the Jericho Qualifiers, but FIOREYES (3) goes on top. Suspect he's been targeted toward this coming in third-up off a short break. Winkers go on now, as does Chris Parnham and he looks a genuine stayer. Should be prominent in the run and take plenty of catching. CHUCK A LUCK (8) is rock-hard fit and comes through the Geraldton Cup over 2100m last time out. He stuck on well in the Great Southern Cup here prior to that and he looks as though he'll stay until last drinks. Recent form puts him right in the finish. DEADLY AND FAST (6) just missed over 2100m here last time out and gets a near side blinker on for the first time. Kyra Yuill has had plenty of success when partnering previously and he should be in the finish if he runs up to recent efforts. SLUICE BOX (2) stayed on well at Geraldton last start and that should hold him in good stead. Winning hope. ODDONEOUT (5) stuck on well to win over 2100m last start and has claims off the inside. SUGGESTED PLAY: With Fioreyes in the Jericho Cup Qualifier.

Last start failed to make an impression; 9th of 11 at Ascot Rtg 66+ on April 20 over 1800m, 6 len behind Sowar carrying 57.5kg at $67. The race before that raced on the pace before fading to run last of 13 at Geraldton Geraldton Cup on April 7 over 2100m, 11 len behind What A Prince carrying 60kg at $51. Genuine chance this time around.
