WU KAU TANG HANDICAP 1400m

Track: FIRM      

An absence of early speed provides Strathpeffer with the opportunity to lead. ROMAN CROWN (13) has been in the market at his last couple of runs but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest fifth at Happy Valley over 1200m. He is better than that and is well poised to make amends. Follow your money. STAR SATYR (1) ran on strongly and was unlucky not to pick up the winner last start over 1400m at this track. He is always an each-way threat in this company. ROBOT STAR (5) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, finishing a most unlucky eighth. He is always a winning chance at this level. AMAZING AWARD (3) has been thereabouts recently, the latest result a fourth beaten 2.75 lengths at Happy Valley over 1650m. Going well without winning, and he is another with top 4 claims in an even field.
