Ashburton Race 2

THANK YOU J.R & SHADDY 1600

Stake: $18,500

OAKSDEEL (6) is a lot stronger this season and will be peaking third up from a spell. This field lacks any depth of form, and even from a wide gate, she is the one to beat. TRANQUIL EYES (7) has gone close to winning a race in the past, and her recent form is heading the right way. A good draw is always a help, and she is the main threat to the top pick. GASGAL (8) is proving to be very hard to catch and was a fast finishing fourth here 12 days ago over 1400m The extra furlong will help, and more importantly, she will have Bruno Queiroz in the saddle, which could be enough to see her break through for an overdue win. ELPHABA (12) whacked away along the rails here last time out, and is not the worst for top 4 combinations. BENGAL (3) has looked better at the trials recently, and the blinkers going on can help. Include in all combinations at a price.

At the latest run second last of 14 at Phar Lap Racecourse on October 9 over 1600m, slow going 16 len behind Cutout carrying 56.5kg at $14.60. The race before that 10th of 14 at Phar Lap Racecourse on September 24 over 1600m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Tetbury with 58.5kg at $25.60. Should be at his top now and cannot be discounted.

Recent form sound. Most recently sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 11 at this track on October 19 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Eight Pence carrying 55.5kg at $7.10. The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 14 at Phar Lap Racecourse on October 9 over 1600m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Cutout with 53.5kg at $12.20. Working up to a win. Nicely drawn and should prove hard to beat.

Finds a nice race this time and is likely to feature.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 11th of 13 at Phar Lap Racecourse on September 24 over 1200m, on a slow track; 8 len behind The Fed Express carrying 55.5kg at $23. Last start 6th of 12 at Phar Lap Racecourse on October 9 over 1200m, slow going 5.5 len behind Morrie with 56kg at $20.70. Can't recommend on that form, looking to others.
