GOING: G

Australian Turf Club (Bm73) 1600m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear   Rail: Out 5m 1000m-W/P. Out 3m Remainder, 1400m Chute Out 5m. (Pent: 4.74).  

Savapinski and Lead Choreographer should take it up. SAVAPINSKI was a dominant on-paced winner at Wyong last start. This is tougher but she has plenty of upside and finds the right race to measure-up. Her only failure did come in town so she has to prove herself to some extent. Avdulla sticks and she can win again. ATARAXIA sat handy and finished too well for them at Beaumont resuming. Will take good improvement rising in distance and just needs luck from the draw. He gets in on the minimum and is also one with scope for progression. RAISE THE LIMIT for the exotics. From the tricky starting point Savapinski and Lead Choreographer from their wide gates will go fast early to cross. The lightly raced mare SAVAPINSKI found the lead well before the turn last start over this distance at Wyong and was able to maintain momentum to score by a comfortable margin. Going ahead in leaps and bounds and looks ready for this tougher assignment. Godolphin's beautifully bred ATARAXIA resumed over 1350m last start at the Beaumont track and recorded a tough half-length win after travelling outside the lead. Sparingly raced colt who will thrive as he gets out to this trip. RAISE THE LIMIT drove late only to go down in a three-way thriller over this course and distance last start. In peak form now and on the limit will be hard to hold out. COYS is up in grade but racing in tremendous spirit. SUGGESTED PLAY: Savapinksi.

Useful type. Last start won by 1 len (overraced early stages) Wyong (Bm65) Sep 1 over 1600m defeating The Iron Maiden carrying 61kg. Run before ran last (checked early stages; suffered from cardiac arrhythmia; trial to steward's satisfaction) at Wyong (Bm65) Jul 25 over 1600m, 29-1/4 len behind Adaboy Ross with 59.5kg. This is a tougher task but he is going too well to dismiss.

Second run from a spell odds-on favourite; won by 2-1/2 len Wyong Hcp (C1) Aug 27 over 1600m defeating Uncle Rodriguez with 57kg. Even fitter now and making headway every start. Take beating.

Dual acceptor. Having second run back today. First-up after five months raced just off the speed and boxed on; won by 1/2 len Beaumont (Newcastle) E&G Mdn Sep 5 over 1350m defeating Legendofoz carrying 56.5kg. Previously second-up wide throughout and blocked for run on straightening; 11th of 14 starters at Newcastle 2yo Mdn in Mar over 1200m, 7 len behind Sanctioned with 57kg.

Racing well but this is a different level.
