Moonee Valley   21 Feb 2025
 
GOING: G

The Hygain Valley Summer Middle Distance Series Heat 4 2040m

Track: Good 3   Clear (Max: 31)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

A solid tempo on the cards with Kokonotsu leading the way. INEVITABLE AWARD (4) brings the right form into this. A winner at Flemington three back, he's been around the mark in two handy races since, beaten a neck by progressive three-year-old Emphasize at Caulfield last time. He'll be back but if the track is racing fairly, he's the one to beat. MISS TARZY (2) can race on speed and that is worth plenty. She's racing consistently and does like it here. Should be right there. HARMONIOUS SENORA (6) can mix her form but does look ready for another crack at this longer trip. Third to Smokin' Princess two back at Flemington reads well for this. REZONE (5) next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Inevitable Award to win.
