FLAMINGO HANDICAP 1800m Track: SOFT |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo anticipated with Absolute Honour and On The Lash pressing forward. ABSOLUTE HONOUR (6) is racing in top order and handled the yielding track last time out when beaten 1.8L. Purton sticks with him, he draws a better gate today and getting back on top of the ground can see him get back to his best. He can get back to winning ways. ENTHRALLED (2) got out to 2000m last start and closed strongly to just miss when the race favourite and that form has already been franked. Back in trip today is a query, but he draws the best barrier he's seen in some time and Bowman sticks with him. Can be in the finish again. ON THE LASH (14) was very good over this course and distance last time out, winning by 1L on the soggy deck. He loves this track and trip and the form out of his last start win has been very strong. Carries no weight today and will be very hard to run down. SMART FAT CAT (12) comes here on the fresh side and steps out to this trip for the first time. Can feature if he runs up to his best.
