Akavoroun: Won 2 from 3 at track. Won 1 from 2 at distance with first up run last prep 3L behind Chautauqua not the worst form you will ever see. 58kg after claims… just missed over 1600m in a Group 1 last prep. Goes well first up.
Hosting: Progressed well last prep to claim two solid wins over 1300m and 1400m in harder grade. Nice first up record but probably find this too hard off 59kg first up and poorly weighted if you ask me.
Decircles: Should have won last two races and beaten just both times. Back down the Flemington straight where hs has shown his best in the past and weighted nicely again in this class. Respect his consistency.
Hard Stride: Horrible last start. two back run strong down straight… back to 1200m compared to 1000m an issue? Back in class at least.
Mr Chard: Huge last prep when winning over further… but ran a very close 2nd in Group 3 over 1200m at course and distance. Respect him in this race.
Magnus Reign: Well backed late last start at Flemington and got the cash. Tycoon Tara won since as well in city class.
Mandla: Goes very well down the straight. Not been seen for nearly a year… measured up at listed company. Quality horse.
Floatmyboat: Continues to run well without winning. Better over further? Go close.
Dig A Pony: Very classy mare but best seen over further. Goes well at track.
General Offer: Back to straight where suited and back in class. Ignore last start. Has ability to measure up.
Don Doremo: Needs further.
Single Days: Ran home very well last start. Watch for him late.
Comments: Most open race i’ve seen in a long time I have to say. About 7-8 key chances. I’d have Magnus Reign on top with Tycoon Tara backing up the form from Mr Chard.
Confidence 10%
Quaddie Leg Three: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 13
Strategy: Magnus Reign to win. Smaller bet Mr Chard.
