HORIZON BY SKYCITY 1600m Track: HEAVY 10 True position |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Looks a decent tempo with Tommy Perfect, Phantom Dragon and Early Bird leading the charge. ELOISE (10) is a very much in form mare here and drawn the ace too. Stable had two in the race but have scratched the other runner tellingly. Win chance here on dry or wet ground. ARJAY'S FLIGHT (1) was just fair at last start. Ran well in both of his runs prior. Drawn wide but claims 4kg. Cannot be omitted from anywhere here. BALLISTIC MISS (12) has been course-placed before. Trifecta and first four chance here without any doubt. ROSETOWN PRINCESS (11) has run well enough in two of three starts this time in. Place and first four chance in this lineup for sure. PHANTOM DRAGON (6) he has been running well for quite a while now. Rider change a plus. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eloise is the one undoubtedly to beat.
