THE COASTY CUP HANDICAP 1200m Track: GOOD Rail: True. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Genuine tempo with Dynamic One and Bartime pressing for the lead. FAMEUX (7) proved too strong last start and scored by 1.3 lengths over 1200m at this track. Has started three times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Beautifully placed to repeat the dose. GALAXY AFFAIR (1) made it two wins in succession last time out when he scored by 1.5 lengths over 1406m at Roebourne. Meeting a tougher field but on current form he is one of the key runners. DYNAMIC ONE (3) went forward and proved too strong last time, scoring with 3 lengths to spare over 1600m at this track. Rosie Mahony has been the pilot at his last two wins. One of the main contenders. BARTIME (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Belmont Park, beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so can turn things around. ROYALZEL (4) was too good last time out and can go back-to-back without surprising. SUGGESTED PLAY: Fameux looks the one to beat again.
