VICTORY IMAGES PHOTOGRAPHY TWO-YEAR-OLD 1680m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 11)    

MY FATAL CHARM (5) finished second last start over 1609m at Hobart, beaten 12 metres, after also filling a minor placing at the previous appearance over 1680m at this track. Good enough to put herself in the winners' stall. ZAV DAN (3) was in the money at this track two runs ago before finishing sixth at his latest appearance over 1680m at this track, beaten 17 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Good enough to take out a race like this. ROCKY STRIDE (4) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1680m. Must be included. SOHO TUXEDO (2) is the best of the rest after finishing fourth first-up over 1680m at this track last time out.

Last start 5th (Sr1) over 1680m at this track beaten 16 m by Rainbow Ranger (2:05.30) in 2yo MAIDEN on July 6 at $71. Two runs back 6th (Fr4) over 1680m after showing early speed at this track beaten 9 m by Qualify (2:04.10) in 2yo NMT 1 LTW on June 22 at $61. Unlikely to threaten in this tougher assignment.

Last start 4th (Fr6) over 1680m at this track, beaten 10 m by Rainbow Ranger (2:05.30) in 2yo MAIDEN on July 6 at $10. Two runs back 8th (Fr1) over 1730m after showing early pace at Bathurst, beaten 24 m by Lexy (2:06.00) in 2yo No NR CG on March 29 at $13. Will come on from that run and is a strong top-three hope.

Last start was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Rainbow Ranger at this track over 1680m in a 2yo MAIDEN on July 6 at $3.50. Raced better the start before that with a game effort when 2nd (Fr2) over 1680m at this track beaten 2.5 m by Qualify (2:04.10) in 2yo NMT 1 LTW on June 22 at $6. Expected to go well.

Fair performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing fourth behind Qualify at this track over 1680m in a 2yo NMT 1 LTW on June 22 at $8. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third behind Rainbow Ranger at this track over 1680m in a 2yo MAIDEN on July 6 at $4.80. Progressing well. Strong claims on what we have seen lately.

Finished second at her last two starts since resuming from a spell. Last outing was beaten 12 metres behind Daisypea at Hobart over 1609m 2yo No NR F on July 13. Sure to play a major role.

Last start 6th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early pace at Hobart, beaten 20 m by Always Bettor (2:00.10) in 2yo No NR CG on July 13 at $51. Before that, a solid effort when 3rd (Fr4) over 1609m at Hobart beaten 12 m by Hey Franco (2:03.70) in 2yo MAIDEN on June 15 at $5. Should be fitter again and gets chance to bounce back.
