Form Analysis: Redcliffe Jul 28

RACE ONE

CRADOCK (3) eased from gate 5 here last start where he went to the post a heavily supported $1.40 fav. Trying to launch a closing raid, he had to settle for the bronze when 6m in arrears of the winner. Beaten a head here two runs back, he is ready to cash in and get on the board.

CHIEF JUJON (2) took on the open age maidens on debut and was strong to the line to grab the silver. Setting the speed second up from gate 5 over the AP mile, he was just 6m in arrears of the subsequent winner and handy performer FOR REAL LIFE. From the good alley, he can challenge.

SIR BOSTON (4) has been runner-up in two of three career starts to date, the latest when best of the chasers behind the big winner JILLIBY TYPHOON. Limiting the burn can see him feature.

HEZA GALVINATOR (5) started from inside the second line last start and could not go with them as YOGI pulled clear for the prize. Despite the tricky gate, he can chime in against these.

SELECTIONS: CRADOCK (3), CHIEF JUJON (2), SIR BOSTON (4), HEZA GALVINATOR (5)
SUGGESTED BET:

RACE TWO

VALKYRIE HANOVER (1) found the pocket trail from gate 2 last start where she was best of the chasing pack behind the big winner DEVELSTIX. Down the line two starts back, she lands all the options from this alley to make a play for the prize.

WRITE TIME (4) started from inside the second line last start and sat in the trail throughout before losing all her momentum when the leader hoisted the white flag. Working into space and chasing hard to be 8m from the winner in 2^nd place, with a better transit, she can challenge.

NEVAEVABEND (8) started from this same gate last start when trying to make a wide run, finishing midfield. 6m away following an inside trip three runs back, she can be joining in here.

ABBEY DIADEMA (9) was beaten by gate 6 last start after snagging back to the rear and then searching for the shortcuts on the way home to grab 3^rd. She can make another late play.

SUGGESTED BET: VALKYRIE HANOVER (1) to win

RACE THREE

PARAMA (7) has hit the board in 3 of his 6 starts on this deck and comes up with the second line options as the lone runner out the back. Powering over the top to score at The Creek two runs back, he was runner-up last start and, in a race, where the 2280m could be a query for a few, he can arrive.

MISTY CREEK (4) was big in victory here on Monday night when sitting parked over the sprint trip and fighting them off in slick time. With a sizzling closing 800m split, it was a career best victory. He may need to do it tough again here but is having a super season.

BAKER CREEK (6) sat in the running line from the second line gate here last time and did not really get warm in the closing stages. First up in five weeks, she will strip fitter and can make a play.

MONGOLIAN CONQUEROR (2) tackled the Western Star last start when beaten by the second line as WOODLEA DIEGO did it all out in front. Just a neck away two runs back, he can make a play here.

SELECTIONS: PARAMA (7), MISTY CREEK (4), BAKER CREEK (6), MONGOLIAN CONQUEROR (2)
SUGGESTED BET: PARAMA (7) to win

RACE FOUR

TORQUE TO THE MAX (2) started from the second line here three runs back and was trying to make a closing play when 3m from the winner. Following that with a similar return at her next attempt, she can settle closer from this alley and with the right trip looks to get a chance.

LIVING FREE (1) landed this same gate last start and was darting through to keep them wide and looking for an all the way win, before fading in the closing stages to hold 3^rd. Grabbed in front at Marburg three runs back, he can try to control the speed here and be gripping on.

DOWNTOWN LUCCA (6) has no favours from the wide gate but he has been thereabouts in recent outings, the latest when working off from behind a tiring leader to grab 2^nd. He can chime in.

AROONA (4) started from inside the second line last start and was soon buried in the run and never had a crack at them as DEVELSTIX claimed a big win. With the right tempo he can be joining in.

SELECTIONS: TORQUE TO THE MAX (2), LIVING FREE (1), DOWNTOWN LUCCA (6), AROONA (4)
SUGGESTED BET: TORQUE TO THE MAX (2) to win

RACE FIVE

FEEL THE THRILL (2) was repelled early last time out before finding cover and then making a closing riad was 4m from the winner. Buried off the second line two runs back, he is at his best when lighting the lamps and finds conditions here to look to light them all the way.

JUST ONE GOOD ONE (1) held the front from this alley last time out and was trying to fight them off but drifted up the track and allowed the winner a saloon passage. He did fight back gamely to be within 2m of that winner and with the gate to be in the mix can look to challenge.

PURPLE SHADES (8) held the trail from gate 1 last time and grabbed the bronze after the cosy trip behind the speed. He can be looking to chime in again.

DIEGO DELGADO (4) rolled forward to sit parked last time and doing it the tough way was just 1m from the winner EXPLANATION NOTED. He can be thereabouts once again.

SELECTIONS: FEEL THE THRILL (2), JUST ONE GOOD ONE (1), PURPLE SHADES (8), DIEGO DELGADO (4)
SUGGESTED BET: FEEL THE THRILL (2) to win

RACE SIX

SCHOOBY (2) has placed in 4 of his 5 starts since putting together a string of 7 consecutive victories and looks to have found conditions for another breakthrough here. Leading everywhere bar the wire last start, he can press ahead and with the options once in control looks the one to beat.

MONTEREY JACK (6) did it the tough way last start and was able to graft out a determined victory with 6m to spare. Wide off the track the start prior, he will need to be wide again, but he can press on to throw down the challenge.

ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (7) scored a smart win from the second line here three runs back and has not been too far away his next two. Probing for gaps last start from this gate, he will be searching again.

CALL ME TRISH (1) started from outside the second line last start and was making some late ground for the bronze. With the cosy trip from this alley, she can be searching for the gaps to feature.

SELECTIONS: SCHOOBY (2), MONTEREY JACK (6), ROCKNROLL DA GAMA (7), CALL ME TRISH (1)
SUGGESTED BET: SCHOOBY (2) to win


 

RACE SEVEN

JOEY LINCOLN (4) will go in search of the hat-trick after successive wins here at the 1780m trip. Using the passing lane to land the winning shot last time, he was three back on the poles here two runs back when arriving. With the right trip, he can descend on them once again.

EXPLANATION NOTED (2) had been building towards a victory after three successive placings, including a 2^nd when just an eyelash short of the prize. Powering home to score from gate 5 two runs back, she went back-to-back last start when arriving and with an improved gate can challenge.

STUDLEIGH WILL (1) burrowed through to lead from this gate five runs back and was gripping on in the stretch to be 3m adrift of the winner. Not suited since that outing, he will be trying to see it out.

CHEDDAR MADE BETA (8) found the front last start and then able to walk them through the middle stages had enough in store to hold on for a 2m margin. With the right trail he can chime in.

SELECTIONS: JOEY LINCOLN (4), EXPLANATION NOTED (2), STUDLEIGH WILL (1), CHEDDAR MADE BETA (8)
SUGGESTED BET: JOEY LINCOLN (4) to win

 

RACE EIGHT

STUDLEIGH MARK (3) fired off the arm from gate 4 here two runs back and from the front controlled the speed to take a 3m margin. Beaten by the second line last start when back in the pack before making a closing raid top be just 7m away, he finds the gate to fire the early bullets.

FAIREACHDAINN (1) was looking to claim a hat-trick of victories two runs back when she copped plenty of heat in front at Marburg and was unable to cope over the closing stages. With 4 weeks until her next appearance when buried from inside the second line, she has the gate to challenge.
 
IN CHEVRON WE TRUST (9) resumes from a spell and has been to the trials with a sound hit out in readiness for his next campaign. Strong to the line last start, look for him in the closing stages.
MOUNT HERCULES (7) snagged back from gate 4 last start and was soon snookered on the poles before attacking the line smartly to be under 2m from the winner. He will be probing here.

SUGGESTED BET: STUDLEIGH MARK (3) to win
 

RACE NINE

FIREHOUSE (4) finished 9m from the winner last start after working in the early stages and then not having the cleanest passage on the way home. Beaten by wide gate his previous two starts, he can press forward here and up on the engine will take some extinguishing.

THIS ONES FOR YOU (3) was wide off the track last start from the second line and found the wire in nice order for the bronze when 5m from the winner DOLLARBILL. That was her first look at this track and with the improved gate, she can get forward to make a play.

JOHNROD (1) has owned The Triangle in recent starts, winning his past five in succession on this deck. Starting to sneak up in grade, he looks a big risk of getting buried here which dents his chances.

ROCKINDOWNUNDER (2) has early hustle and can fire some early bullets to look for the poles. Close to MY ULTIMATE COBBER last start, an inside trip will aid her chances.

SELECTIONS: FIREHOUSE (4), THIS ONES FOR YOU (3), JOHNROD (1), ROCKINDOWNUNDER (2)
SUGGESTED BET: FIREHOUSE (4) to win

RACE TEN

THE IRISH EAGLE (8) has the hoof on the ‘till with some strong efforts in recent outings, the latest when closing nicely for the bronze behind MY ULTIMATE COBBER. Grafting it out first over two runs back, he charged home to run the winner to a neck margin three back and can throw it down again.

SO MUCH MORE (2) will be tightened from his last start where he was resuming from a break. Obliged to roll the sleeves and do it the tough way first over, he was game in defeat when 3m in arrears of the winner. From the gate he can look to throw down a challenge.

TEE RAVELLING (1) was taken across the border to Tamworth last start where he drew outside the front line and struck trouble in the run. With a big improvement in gates, he looks to get his chance.

WHOSTOLEMYPIGEON (7) has hit the board in four of his past five including a gritty effort last start when holding on for the silver. With the chance of a sweet trip, he can swoop.
