EMPOWERING YOUTH 1200M HANDICAP 1200m Track: STANDARD |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Expecting a strong pace headed by Vantastic Choice, Lucky Banner and Happy Tango. The final race on the All Weather and SMART LEADER (9) appears the one to beat. He just missed here two starts ago before winning impressively on the Turf course last time out. Back to this surface doesn't appear an issue and he drops 7kg for the rise in grade. Nicely placed and can win again. SOLID SHALAA (2) got the job done two back and almost won again last time out, just missing in a photo. He's come to love this course and distance and this looks to set up similarly to his recent efforts. He looks destined to run well again. MUST GO (1) was far too good over this track and trip last time out when winning by 1.8L. Only a 3YO and he's still improving. Can continue his upward trend despite the rise in weight. VALIANT ELEGANCE (11) held on to win here last time out and drops in weight as he rises in grade. Keep safe.
