1EQUINE AUSTRALASIAN YOUNG DRIVERS CHAMPIONSHIP HEAT 4 1660m

Track: GOOD      

VINSANITY (6) finished fifth last start, beaten 13 metres at this track over 1660m. Has the class to take this out. OUR SUNSET DELIGHT (10) put together a series of minor placings then raised his game last start on July 8 over 2138m at this track, getting home by 4.5 metres when working hard. Draws out a little on the second line and may end up working hard once again. Primary contender in a similar assignment. DRAGON (3) disappointed last time when eighth over 2138m at this track. Draws better this time in and can atone. PRINCE OF PAIN (8) showed pleasing improvement last time out when runner-up over 2138m at this track.

Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Alta Sensation at Redcliffe over 1780m in a NR 51 to 55 on July 10 at $4.40. Great chance to break through.
