GOING: G

CFC 6 IN 7 YEARS - FOX ON THE RUN 1991 BM64 Handicap 1600m

Track: Good 4   Clouds (Max: 14)   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.31)  

Genuine tempo from Vegas On Fire leading Unfair Dismissal. Another tricky race on a tricky card. Settled on JUJA KIBO (2), who was only nosed out resuming at Bendigo on May 30. Handy galloper who should go onto bigger and better things soon enough. Suspect the price here will be a good one and one that we can get stuck into against an even chasing lot. SHOELESS (7) drops back in grade after narrowly going under last time at this track. Should be very competitive at this level and is the most feared. BROOKLYN BOSS (3) should get a more favourable surface here and his best form would have him right in the mix. May even need to throw a few more into the quaddie. SUGGESTED PLAY: Hoping to get a bit of a price about JUJA KIBO (2) to win this one.

Form hard to fault. Last start favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a neck at Geelong 0 - 64 June 5 over 1700m on a soft track defeating Makdane with 59kg at $4. The race before that 3rd of 9 at this track 0 - 64 on May 16 over 1600m, 0.6 len behind Shoeless carrying 59kg at $1.80. Full of confidence and can win here if he overcomes sticky barrier.

Much tougher now, and tempted to look elsewhere.
