Race 2 No 4 AUTUMN VIBES
He was unlucky not to win on debut, as a slow start severely hampered his chances, leaving him well off the pace. Despite this, he unleashed a strong turn of foot in the straight to finish third, falling just 1.25 lengths short.
Since then, he has trialled well and now finds himself ideally placed in a below-par Class 4 field. With a clean getaway, the three-year-old looks primed to break through.
Race 10 No 5 WINNING DRAGON
It is puzzling that he continues to be overlooked by the market, regardless of class. Last start, he defied his rating to finish fourth in a Group 1 feature, backing up a close second in a Group 3 two runs ago.
Dropping to Class 2 is a significant advantage this week, and if he maintains his recent form, he should prove highly competitive.
Sectional Stars
Race 1 No 8 GANGNAM STAR
His recent underperformance can be largely attributed to drawing poor gates. However, his fast-finishing eighth last time out indicates that he is on the right track to regaining his form. With a better draw this week, he could sneak into the placings at odds.
Race 4 No 5 LUCKY SAM GOR
Having shown promise in both starts, he closed strongly for fourth over 1400m two weeks ago, finishing three lengths behind the talented SKY JEWELLERY. Stepping up to a mile this week, he should be even better suited, and with a genuine pace, he is expected to make his presence felt.
