GOING: N

FAST AS THE WIND USA @ WINGATE FARM TROTTERS MOBILE (SKY 2) 2230m

Track: GOOD      

EBONYS AVENGER (3) drew wide last start and was never a genuine threat, beaten 35 metres into sixth at Melton over 1720m. Will enjoy a nice run from this more favourable starting position. This is a nice drop in grade, so she is sure to prove tough to beat. IKIGAI (6) was struggling to make her mark before the latest appearance when she scored by 2.75 metres over 2230m at this track. Meets a similar lineup, so she is capable of getting the job done again. WISHING STAR (4) didn't do a bad job when fourth over 2230m at this track last time out. BISHOP GEORGE (2) has a good draw and is worth including in all combinations.

Didn't do much last time out, 8th (FT Fr2) over 2230m at this track beaten 35 m by All The Trix (2:52.70) in NR 58 or better on July 12 at $126. Before that 5th (FT Fr2) over 2230m at this track beaten 14 m by My Bad Habits (2:52.20) in NR 62 or better on July 7 at $26. Unlikely to threaten.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was well back in the run when 6th (Fr6) over 1720m at Melton beaten 35 m by Jilliby Ballerini (2:06.50) in No NR M on July 12 at $34. The run before 5th (Fr1) over 1720m at Melton was 3rd-5.92 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Gotfeelingsyouknow (2:05.00) in NR 72 to 87 on June 28 at $5.50. Better than the latest run and from a low draw gets her chance to bounce back.

Nine-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (FT Fr4) over 2230m at this track beaten 5 m by All The Trix (2:52.70) in NR 58 or better on July 12 at $17. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind My Bad Habits at this track over 2230m in a NR 62 or better on July 7 at $26. Not keen.
