ADMIRALTY HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Just a modest pace in store without noted speed runners engaged. AUTUMN VIBES (5) heads the ratings after being given time to mature and looks the runner to beat. He was unsuited last start when failing to settle, but has trialled well since and a change of stable could spark a turnaround. TELECOM POWER (10) produced a powerful late burst to just miss over 1650m last time and another barnstorming finish can put him right in the finish. STORMY KNIGHT (4) is interesting dropping down the ratings and tackling cellar grade for the first time. He failed to place last season but was often competitive and can improve sharply here. ALWAYS FLUKE (6) resumes after 11 weeks and showed enough last campaign to suggest he can make his presence felt fresh. MARVEL AND GOLD (2) is worth respecting stepping into Class 5 after finishing last season with a close-up sixth. He was held up late and could be suited by this assignment.
