SERVING THE COMMUNITY 1200M HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
A solid tempo anticipated with Wonderstar and Lunar Dash ahead of Miracle Fighter. LUNAR DASH (2) jumped the $2 favourite on debut and only just missed at this track and trip, beaten 0.3L when tiring close to home. He'll be fitter for that effort and he's since trialled in sharp fashion with the Blinkers on, which he'll wear today. Good figures last start and he looks the one to beat with his scope for improvement. WONDERSTAR (1) just missed out on victory when beating Lunar Dash last start, but he meets that galloper worse at the weights today. He's knocking on the door of another victory and he'll make his own luck up on the speed. Likely to play a major role. MIRACLE FIGHTER (7) comes through that same race where he was beaten 1.5L without much luck, particularly at the start. The wide draw is a niggle, but he comes in off the premier form race and with a touch more luck, he'll go close. AUTUMN DELIGHT (11) got the job done at Happy Valley last start and maps to get every chance today. Can go back-to-back.
