GOING: S(5)

Victorian Wakeful Club 2026 Lady of Racing Award 1200m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: Out 5m Entire Circuit.  

Bold Response should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. ETERNAL (8) resumes from a spell. First up last campaign she was completely dominant winning a BM64 at Sale by four lengths, solid in a strong BM66 in town next time out. She's been given a solid 1000m trial leading in and draws well having shown ability beyond this grade. KING TUT (7) resumes for his second campaign. He did win his maiden easily at Pakenham Synthetic on debut, thereabouts in three subsequent runs. He can be finishing hard with natural improvement. INSAIN HARRY (2) is in flying form, winning three of his past five. Back to 1200m here looks ideal and he'll be very hard to hold out. ATTAIN (6) is finding it tough to break through but is going well and will be rock hard fit tracking the speed. KYLE (3) took no part last time - his form prior gives him each-way claims. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eternal to win.
