WESTSPEED PLATINUM AUTUMN FINAL 1400m

Track: SOFT5     Rail: +2m Entire.  

Cheryl's Shout to take charge ahead of Kelvinater at a strong tempo. The final of the Westspeed Platinum Autumn Series and BOHEMIAN DIAMOND (2) bolted in to score first-up in this grade, winning by 1.9L. She was an odds-on favourite there and was a second-up winner in fine style again last campaign. May need some luck from the draw but has plenty of talent and can bring up back-to-back wins. HAMMARMILL (3) scored a strong win two back before a 3.3L defeat at Belmont last time out, finishing behind Bohemian Diamond. Drawing away from the inside looks a big key to her chances and she can turn the tables. VALDARENA (6) was solid 28 days ago when beaten by Hammarmill first-up. She'll be better now with the run under her belt and the rise in trip should suit. Can turn in an improved effort. KELVINATER (1) was too good from the front last start and will give them something to chase again. MAJOR MARIO (7) is better than he showed last start, but he's unbeaten third-up and his best would see him right in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bohemian Diamond can go back-to-back.

Last start won by 0.8 len at Ascot Westspeed 0Mwly May 10 over 1400m defeating The Spruiker carrying 59kg at $7. The race before that faded in the straight 6th of 8 at Ascot Westspeed Heat on May 3 over 1200m, on a slow track; 9 len behind Hammarmill with 59.5kg at $5.50. Rates highly off the last start win and can put his best foot forward.
