EW BARKER TROPHY GROUP 2 1400m Track: STANDARD Rain (Max: 30) |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Abundant early pace from Lim's Saltoro, Mr Black Back and Street Of Dreams vying for the lead with Bestseller on their backs. Seven-time Gr 1 winner LIM'S KOSCIUSZKO (1) scored by 1.5 lengths over 1200m on the all-weather last start when fresh from a spell. Has beaten most of these during his illustrious career and should add to the imposing record this afternoon. Singapore Derby winner GOLDEN MONKEY (2) was always forward and boxed on to finish fourth over 1600m in the SGG3 Committee's Prize at this track last time. Form here at this trip is strong. Tough to see him beating the favourite but should be competitive. SUPER SALUTE (3) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Scored over 1200m at this track at the start of last prep. Proven at this level and is among the better hopes. The consistent STREET OF DREAMS (5) has been in the placings at his last two appearances, finishing second over 1600m in the SGG3 Committee's Prize at this track most recently. Don't underestimate.
