CAMBRIDGE RACEWAY   17 Jul 2025
 
GOING: G

ACCOUNTED 4 TAX TIME MOBILE PACE 2200m

Track: GOOD      

GRAPHITE (8) scored by 4 metres at this track over 2200m last start at his first career run. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Meets a similar line up so he can keep the ball rolling. OHOKA ACHILLES (6) won at this circuit two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 2200m here, beaten 3.5 metres. Meets a similar line up and he can figure in the finish. BENSON DUDE (2) didn't do a bad job when sixth over 2200m at this venue last time out. Top-three aspirations. FRANCO MIKI (4) is the next elect off a last-start win by 1.4 metres at this course over 2200m. Include in calculations.
