GOING: G(4)

AUSTRALIAN FLYING CORPS HANDICAP 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 21)   Rail: +10m 1000m-W/Post, +8m Remainder.  

Hay Street, Midnight Dynamite and Sergeant Major all possess good speed. CALL ME GORGEOUS (9) former Hong Kong trained gelding undefeated in two starts this prep. Shouldered the 59kg with an eye catching victory over 1200m at Warwick Farm. Since fitted with a 900m trial placing at Rosehill. Tempo suits and can keep the winning momentum going. HAY STREET (13) progressive gelding who shed his Maiden tag two-back in good style. Up quickly in class when he got the job done again over 1150m at Randwick Kensington in BM78 class. Has the speed to get over from the draw and will prove hard to run down. SHROPSHIRE LAD (12) hard fit for this and showed good acceleration when scoring over 1100m at Rosehill. Drops in weight and should run a strong 1200m. Respect. MIDNIGHT DYNAMITE (2) fast gelding resuming. Went out a winner in the heavy (8) going over 1400m at Kembla Grange last November. Primed with the two good trials and sure to be thereabouts. MOGUL MONARCH (3) out of his depth last start and worth another chance with the 3kg claimer aboard. SUGGESTED PLAY: Call Me Gorgeous can keep raising the bar.
