HKJC WORLD POOL BOBBIE LEWIS QUALITY
Keen to see progressive sprinter OLIVEANOTHERDAY (5) step out again. He was awesome winning the G3 The Heath at Caulfield first up, having to wait for a run but exploding once clear, the 1.5 length margin underselling the win. Beat Bridal Waltz & War Machine there and if anything this looks a shade easier. Provided he handles the straight he'll likely be winning again. LOSESOMEWINMORE (13) charged home last start in the G3 Carlyon over 1000m which isn't his go. The straight 1200m is his best trip and he drops right down in the weights - should take holding out. KING OF ROSEAU (4) resumes. He was a good winner fresh last time in and boasts a strong win over this route in similar company. Only off a short break and should go well. HEDGED (3) found 1000m too sharp fresh but is a G1 placegetter and gets in well for Shinn at a big price. ROYAL INSIGNIA (15) is going well and will be running on down the outside.
Second run back. First-up after two months 6th of 11 in the G2 PB Lawrence Stakes at Caulfield on August 15 over 1400m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Cosmic Crusader carrying 59kg at $26. Previously second-up came from midfield and won by a nose in a G1 The Goodwood at Morphettville on May 9 over 1200m in soft going defeating Extragalactic with 56kg at $18. G1 winner this trip but prefer over further.
Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 8 in the G3 Aurie's Star Handicap at this track on August 1 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Boomtown Boss with 59kg at $4.80. Last start raced behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 11 in the LR Regal Roller Stakes at Caulfield on August 15 over 1200m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Shadhavar with 60.5kg at $6. Awful last time, not sure where he's at.
Second run back. First-up after five months 5th of 8 in the G3 Carlyon Stakes at Sandown-Hillside on August 22 over 1000m, on a wet track; 3 len behind Cavalry Girl with 59kg at $4.40. Previously second-up 6th of 13 in the G3 Rising Fast (Chatham) Stakes at this track on November 1 over 1200m, 2 len behind Caballus carrying 54kg at $5. Better placed this trip, has class to figure.
Gelding returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last preparation 13th of 18 at Eagle Farm in the G1 Stradbroke June 13 over 1400m, in the wet; 5 len behind Spicy Martini with 54kg at $41. Previous preparation first-up won by nose Gosford LR Takeover Target May 9 over 1200m defeating Harry's Yacht carrying 60kg at $6. Goes well fresh and has peaks to run well.
Second run back. First-up after four months favourite; came from midfield and won by 1.5 len in a G3 The Heath 1100 Stakes at Caulfield on August 29 over 1100m in soft going defeating Bridal Waltz with 58kg at $2.30. Previously second-up favourite; scored a big 3.5 len win in a 3yo Bm66 at Caulfield Heath on March 18 over 1200m defeating Hotspur Reale with 60.5kg at $1.40. Big chance to add to the picket fence. Very exciting sprinter who should be taking care of these again.
Resuming. Finished off last campaign ninth of 17 at Eagle Farm in the G1 Tatt's Tiara June 27 over 1400m, soft track; 4 len behind Splash Back carrying 57kg at $21. First up last campaign seventh of 12 at Randwick in the G3 Wenonagirl March 7 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Gangsta Granny carrying 59kg at $15. This is a tough ask.
Second-up. First-up after six months got back early 6th of 8 in the G3 Show County Quality at Randwick on August 22 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Midnight In Tokyo carrying 58kg at $12. Previously second-up from last on the turn ran second last of 7 in a G3 Southern Cross Stakes at Rosehill on January 31 over 1200m, 3 len behind Willaidow carrying 56kg at $4.40. Possible improver.
Second-up. First-up after four months 5th of 8 in the G3 Show County Quality at Randwick on August 22 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Midnight In Tokyo carrying 58kg at $4.80. Previously second-up came from midfield; 2nd of 12 in the G3 Liverpool City Cup at Randwick on February 28 over 1300m, slow going 1.3 len behind King Of Roseau with 53.5kg at $7.50. Rough place hope.
Second run back. First-up after three months got back early 6th of 11 in the LR Regal Roller Stakes at Caulfield on August 15 over 1200m, slow going 2.75 len behind Shadhavar carrying 56kg at $5.50. Previously second-up won by 1.5 len in the LR Hareeba Stakes at Mornington on April 18 over 1200m defeating La Fracas with 54kg at $4.80. Not much luck fresh but this will test.
Dual acceptor. Second-up. First-up after three months 4th of 7 in the G3 Toy Show Quality at Randwick on August 22 over 1100m, slow going 2 len behind Prima Bella with 57.5kg at $17. Previously second-up ran last of 12 in the G2 Sapphire Stakes at Randwick on April 11 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind In Flight with 56.5kg at $12. Likely to find this out of reach.
Resuming. Finished off last preparation second last of 9 at Sandown-Hillside Bm100 May 23 over 1800m, soft track; 15 len behind Pudding with 59kg at $9.50. When resuming last campaign second last in a small field at Caulfield in the G2 Rubiton February 7 over 1100m, 3.5 len behind Oak Hill with 58kg at $26. Finds them too sharp.
Resuming. Finished off last preparation sixth of 12 at Bendigo in the LR Golden Mile May 2 over 1600m, 1.2 len behind Von Hauke carrying 56kg at $9.50. Previously first up; third of 8 at this track in the LR The Elms Hcp February 14 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Cafe Millenium with 56kg at $8.50. Prefer over a bit further.
Most recently 3rd of 8 in the G3 Carlyon Stakes at Sandown-Hillside on August 22 over 1000m, on a wet track; 1.5 len behind Cavalry Girl carrying 58kg at $7.50. The run before that 5th of 9 in the LR Santa Ana Lane Sprint Series Final at this track on July 4 over 1200m, on a slow track; 1.2 len behind Ndola with 59kg at $4. Making headway. Good run last time and this is his ideal spot.
Most recently got back early 6th of 8 in a G3 The Heath 1100 Stakes at Caulfield on August 29 over 1100m, slow going 5 len behind Oliveanotherday with 57kg at $19. The run before that 3rd of 9 in the LR Santa Ana Lane Sprint Series Final at this track on July 4 over 1200m, slow going 0.7 len behind Ndola carrying 58.5kg at $4.20. Rough place hope.
Racing well recently. Comes off a 42 day let-up. At the latest run 2nd of 8 in the G3 Aurie's Star Handicap at this track on August 1 over 1200m, long-neck behind Boomtown Boss with 54kg at $8.50.
