THE ARGONAUT PLATE 1000m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|

A keen tempo is assured with the potential of one or more first starters applying pressure to the noted speedsters Santorini and Skyey Blue. LA FORZA (8) jumped $1.40 on debut after a nice trial win but ended up 1L off the winner at the finish. The winner doesn't show up here and he gets the winkers on this time. Drawn for a better run in transit down the straight this time and with improvement expected, he should be getting the job done. SANTORINI (5) just couldn't hold off the first two across the line on debut, finishing 2L off the winner and behind La Forza. He was in the market there and with a middle alley, he can get across to the outside rail and lead. Will take catching again. CALIFORNIA MOXIE (2) was slow out but closed off strongly from the back. Now gets the winkers on and he should be better for that experience. Can play a role. MEANINGFUL DRAGON (4) looks to have trialled the best of the debutants and is not to be discounted.
