PROFESSIONALS REAL ESTATE FORSTERTFJC HAHN GOLD CUP ***BIG DANCE ELIGIBILITY*** 1600m

Track: GOOD3   Rain (Max: 18)   Rail: True.  

Moderate tempo with Dubai Warrior leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. The 100K Hahn Gold Cup over 1600m is the feature of the day. IT'S A KNOCKOUT (1) has recently joined the Jason Deamer stable, and his last run was a sound effort for seventh in the Listed Rowley Mile at Hawkesbury. A change of surroundings can work wonders for some older mares, and the quieter yard can also bring about some better form. She is definitely up to winning this. DUBAI WARRIOR (10) may have found 1900m a touch too far when weakening from a handy trip at Canterbury just over a fortnight ago. He has never missed a cheque in 6-starts over this trip, including 3 wins, so expect him to bounce straight back into the money. KING JERRY (11) won his last start, and though this is much tougher, he will drop 4kg, so keep him safe. ENGINE ROOM (8) will have no fitness query fifth up, and he is worth including. SUGGESTED PLAY: It's A Knockout can win this.
