R7 n1 ZAPHOD Forward on map to be on speed and control. 2nd up off 18 days rises 2.5kg out to 1800m (+100m). Last start Scone Class 1 resumed off 255-day spell at 1700m on a H10 track and began awkwardly with XONB off – sat 3rd on a very fast tempo but was much too strong late winning by 3.5L when solid in betting. He had a quality close late in that race for the meeting and off that tempo. Irish import who can only improve today 2nd up fitter and this this race is paper thin class wise.

R5 n4 JEWELLERY Great map 4th inside on leaders back. 5th up off 21 days rises 4kg stays at 1200m. Last start Caulfield S7 (messy track/inside was off and track deteriorated throughout meeting) off 28 days drifted back off MF with cover 6L out in middle of track (suited) and was widest in straight. Strong closing figures from there for 3ra beaten 1L by Baraqiel (smart) in a strong race. Back to Fillies/ Mares class today and a great map.
R6 n9 IN FLIGHT Forward on map to be 2nd OSL. 6th up on 7 day back up drops 7.5kg stays at 1100m. Last start Randwick S7 drew soft sat back 5th on an even tempo and much too strong again with 60kg in BM78 class winning by 2L and heavily backed. Figures from race were best of meeting-she had an outstanding L600m in meeting dominant figures. She is in the zone and all her overall figures are excellent -will take some beating today with 52.5kg up on an average tempo.
R7 n2 AGE OF SAIL Midfield on map 3 pairs back inside 3ª up off 14 days out to 2400m (+400m)-which suits ideally. Last start Randwick H9 drew wider went back near last early on a very fast tempo and ran home hard late for 3rd beaten 0.8L with a race dominant close. There was genuine quality in his late figures there off that tempo. UK import now in 21 prep for K Lees stable proven out to 2400m and both runs back have been excellent. Ready to win today.
R9 n3 CHORLTON LANE Back off midfield on map inside 4 pairs back. 4th up off 21 days rises 7.5kg back to 1300m (-140m). Last start Caulfield G4 (messy track/inside was off and track deteriorated throughout meeting) was 3′” up off 56 days sat 5th back inside (awful there now) and just did not handle that track and run must be forgiven. Both prior wins this prep were strong high-quality performances. Proven at Rosehill and the improving track surface today suits him ideally off the solid tempo. Keen he swamps these late and wins today.

R4 n2 CINDY FALLS Maps well, forward behind leaders from inside draw. 5th up off 14 days rises 3kg out to 1600m (+200m) which suits. Last start Flemington off 21 days drew outside and was taken back to last on an even tempo with cheekers and lugging bit on first time – was huge late winning narrowly but impressively. She had electric closing figures late in a race that favoured horses on speed. Proven out to 1600m and form looks even better on soft tracks. Both Australian runs have been strong and is very well placed in BM78 class here despite the weight rise.
R6 n6 BARAQIEL Forward early from wider draw and suited out there on this track today. 5th race start off 21 days rises 3kg stays at 1200m and in BM84 class. Last start Caulfield Slow 7 (messy track, inside was off and track deteriorated throughout meeting) went forward 3 wide (suited this track) and although very wayward in straight won softly on the line and the figures from the race were very strong. Now takes on Flemington straight track first time as his next challenge but he is a genuine talent and should be winning.
R8 n6 CADMUS Gets back off MF on map. 5th up off 35 days rises 1.5kg out to 2000m. Last start Sandown S6 drew outside went back to last (not suited that meeting back there) on a fast tempo and far too strong late winning by 1.8L in quality figures- that was a quality win. All his form this prep has been excellent and his closing speed off fast tempos sets him up well for 2000m today. Proven on wet and emerging young horse racing against horses with more exposed form who are not regular winners.

R2 n15 MORTAR – is an ex Victorian resuming from a lengthy spell. He hasn’t been seen at the public trials, but his jump outs suggest he’s forward enough to run a big race here, will sit handy from the good draw and take plenty of holding out late.
R6 n8 CHIARO DI LUNA – Resumed with a luckless effort at Kilcoy when held up at a crucial stage before finishing strongly for a close 4th. Her form down south prior is good enough for this race and maps well for good jockey, hard to beat.
