Race 1: ATC Owners Benefit Card Handicap 1200m

On pace dominated. Pretty Fast (1^st) sat outside the leader and was too strong late, going well. Easy Eddie (2^nd) led and kicked, has gone well enough. Heliosphere (3^rd) had gone very well, didn’t have the tempo to suit and has ran on strongly, looks in for a good prep.

Race 2: Chandons Handicap 1400m

Sedanzer (1^st) had a nice run midfield and kept coming in the straight to just get up, should take good improvement from the run, and looks in for a good prep. Slow Burn (2^nd) had a nice run, showed a nice turn of foot, bloused late, beat the rest easily, good effort. Not much to say about the rest.

Race 3: Boohoo.com Handicap 2000m

Lord Kingsley (1^st) settled worse than midfield off the strong tempo and has ran on well to get up late, going well this prep. Imperial Aviator (2^nd) looked to be struggling a long way out but kept finding the line. Not much to say about the rest, nothing with upside in this race.

Race 4: TAB Highway Handicap 1100m

Equal Balance (1^st) had a nice run midfield and has been too strong late, deserved win. Star Aspiration (2^nd) and She Knows (3^rd) both sat on the speed and had their chance.

Race 5: November Handicap 1400m

Cabeza De Vaca (1^st) owned the race out in front and was given a lovely front running ride by Rachel King, can keep winning going up in distance. Firsthand (2^nd) has ran well, was attacking the line well late, winner got the break on straightening. Federal (3^rd) has gone well enough but hasn’t won for a long time.

Race 6: November Topaz 1900m

Interlocuter (1^st) settled towards the rear, travelled up very well like he was going to put a gap in them, only grinded to the line but still a class above. Black on Gold (2^nd) is going well, might have ran into a smart one. Embley (3^rd) ran his usual honest race.

Race 7: Jaydub Electrical Handicap 1200m

Best Guess (1^st) was heavily backed and has owned the race in front, was never going to lose, a class above. Star Reflection (2^nd) sat behind the leader, has battled on well enough, good return. Pipeline (3^rd) has ran on well enough, solid return. Pelorus Jack (5^th) was held up early in the straight, still don’t think he figures in the finish even with clear running.

Race 8: #THERACES Handicap 1400m

Redouble (1^st) was caught wide and kept hitting the line for a nice win, going well and is hard fit. Flow (2^nd) was a mess in the mounting yard pre-race, has gone well, just beaten by a fitter horse, looks in for a good prep. Cosmic Engine (3^rd) has gone OK.

Race 9: Boxing Day at Royal Randwick Sprint 1100m

Glenall (1^st) had a nice run and kept hitting the line in the straight, nice return. Tactical Advantage (2^nd) had a nice run midfield, showed a nice sprint to just go down, nice run. Tango Rain (4^th) travelled up like the winner before knocking up late, solid run. Thought Pomelo (5^th) went well, don’t think staying at the 1100m suited, want to be on her up in distance next start.

Horses to Follow

Heliosphere – Nice return, should be winning a race this prep.

Flow – Played up pre-race, nice return, should be winning soon.

Pomelo – Keen to back her up in distance next start.
