RACE TWO
ALTA MAGACIAN (1) A horse who’s been really well, two starts ago at Albion he won sitting parked in a 1.53.7 mile rate, just absolutely bullied his rivals. He was checked horrendously last start at Redcliffe, so they’ll be back with vengeance this week and I expect lead and win tactics. He has gate speed and is a big strong horse, will take a lot of beating.
NEPTUNE (8) Impressed when winning last start, sizzled home in a 26.4 last quarter, he looks ready to run a big race from the back row, will require some luck but definite chance.
ROCKOKOKO (9) Walked in last start, was a comfy win and lead from #5, been dealt a sticky draw but that win suggests he had a lot left in the tank so I think he will be able to work around the field some stage or if he was to get 3 wide cover he would be looming large when they turn for home.
MYDADSAID (7) No doubt he will get backed, going to be behind the speed over the 2280m lures a few keen eyes. He did run a good 2nd behind Alta Magacian when he won at Albion, he was taking ground off him at the line, and briefly held up, so may have got closer. Massive chance off the back of the leader here.
