RACE FIVE
First up in 8-months here last week when tackling the 2138m trip and forced to sit parked, there was plenty to take out of the return of GOVERNOR JUJON (6). After two steady trials in readiness for the return, he was game to the wire when only a half-neck in arrears. Fitter for the run, a return to the mile suits and he can prove too classy.
DOUBLE OR NOTHING (9) is crying out to win one of these qualifiers having placed at his past 2 attempts in this grade. Eased early from gate 7 last time, he was strong to the line over the latter stages to get within a head of the winner LIFE LAVROS. Trailing through early, if the Gov is still a little underdone, he can capitalise.
SIMON (1) burrowed through to lead from this alley 3 runs back and was trying to fight them off when wilting in the closing stages to be 8m from the winner. Not suited last start when working hard, the gate is a big help here.
KING TRITON (10) settled in the running line from gate 9 last start but was unable to go on with it over the closing stages. Placed in 3 of his previous 4 attempts, he can hit the board again here.
SELECTIONS: GOVERNOR JUJON (6), DOUBLE OR NOTHING (9), SIMON (1), KING TRITON (10)
