---|---|---|---|---|
Strong tempo, primarily from Wondereach and Who Goes There.
IMPERIAL FORCE (3) has been gelded and is back from a 163-day spell. Led and just failed to hold on in the Gr 2 Arrowfield Sprint last Autumn which was the high point of that campaign. Classy sprinter who should be in for his best prep yet. Stablemate SHEZANALISTER (4) is back from a five-month spell and looking to add to her outstanding record of four wins from five starts when fresh. Drawn to enjoy a nice run in transit. Talented mare who has been in the money twice at Group level. This looks a nice race for her. ZEALOUSLY (9) resumes after a four-month absence. Yet to tackle black type company but his form last prep in decent Benchmark races was commendable. Big chance down in the weights. COAL CRUSHER (1) comes to had quickly. Ran Mazu to just over a length last prep in the Hall Mark which is strong form for a race of this kind. Worth plenty of thought. BRUDENELL (2) disappointed first-up in Melbourne but is more effective back at today's journey. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Imperial Force.
