Alice Springs   10 Jan 2026
 
GOING: G

Scope Building Handicap 1200m

Track: Good   Clear (Max: 39)   Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo from No Cash Here leading Peace Baby. OUR SQUAMOSA (5) settled well back then made a little ground and finished 1.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1000m at this track three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time and rates the testing material. DELUSIONALDICTATOR (1) will appreciate the longer journey after finishing a solid sixth when resuming last start over 1000m here. Races well when second-up and is expected to be in the finish. NO CASH HERE (4) finished 3 lengths away from the winner last time at this circuit and gets some weight relief here. Shapes as one of the main contenders. PEACE BABY (2) is showing enough in the NT to suggest he can be in the thick of things. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Our Squamosa.
