ALIBABA'S FLYING CARPETS KERIKERI CUP 1100m

Track: HEAVY     Out 8m  

There looks to be decent pace in this Open Class event over 1100m. CROCETTI (1) is a multiple class dropper resuming. Last start was a close second in a G1 over 1400m. Class act. Has won both his starts here. Looks too good after a 2kg claim in this surely. MASTER FAY (2) is a multiple class dropper too resuming. Last start flopped in a G1 at Flemington over 1200m. Unbeaten fresh up. Threat after a 2kg claim. Dry tracker. ILLICIT DREAMS (4) is a local and has never missed the top three here. Multiple class riser. Drops 4kg. Place and first four must. PIPPY (5) all of her wins have come here at home. Trial second last month. Winning rider atop. FLAMING PASSION (8) resumes for a new stable. Trial second last month. Sly one. SUGGESTED PLAY: Crocetti and Master Fay are win wagers.
