GOING: G(4)

SKY RACING QTIS Three-Year-Old Handicap 1400m

Track: Good 4   Clear (Max: 19)   Rail: +0.5m Entire. (Pent: 5.84)  

Just a moderate tempo headed by Cyber City, Benefitsofmine and Meaner Than Evil. The well-related WHISPERING ROGUE (1) (half to 2xG2 winner and G1 placed Whispering Brook) has kicked off his career in fine fashion with a win and three placings from four starts with his only win coming over this distance range. Drawn to get a cosy run in transit from the inside alley and will be at peak fitness for this. On the quick back-up and rates the testing material. WANNABE BRUTAL (3) has placed two from two over this trip and will be cherry-ripe for this contest. Can play a major role in the outcome. CYBER CITY (4) broke the maiden status in dominant fashion at the latest effort and will have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. Can go right on with the job now. The well-bred ESSESSBEE (6) (out of G1 winner Pear Tart) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and any market support must be noted. LONESOME SOUL (7) next in line with the claim. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Whispering Rogue.

Raced two times to date. At very big odds at debut, 10th of 12 at Doomben 2yo Mdn-Sw on July 30 over 1200m, slow going 8 len behind Anders' Style carrying 58kg at $61. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 12 at Sunshine Coast 3yo Mdn on August 15 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind The Wheelbarrow carrying 59.5kg at $16. Not far away at the latest effort but a win doesn’t look likely against this line-up.
