Hamilton Park Race 3

Aspire Cleaning Company Almada Mile Handicap

Stake: $60,332

ARAGON CASTLE (9) was second by a neck at Goodwood in May. Seems to be finding good form since gelded. Leading chance. REPERTOIRE (7) has gone consistently close in his runs this year. Finished 0.75L third at Goodwood over 1600m last time in June. Consider. EXPERT CHOICE (10) might find this easier than his run at Chester when 2.25L fifth tackling 1500m. Bumped on that occasion so a clear passage would help. HIROMICHI (5) may bounce back to form after a slightly below par effort at Sandown in May.

Resumes off a 40 day let-up. At the latest run 7th of 9 at Sandown Park on May 23 over 1600m, slow going 7 len behind Dual Identity with 57kg at $10. The run before that won by 1.0 len at Ripon April 27 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Regheeb carrying 57.5kg at $5. Better than that recent ordinary performance suggests.

Last start 8th of 14 at Redcar on June 21 over 1600m, 7 len behind La Trinidad with 62.5kg at $8. Before that 7th of 17 at York on May 16 over 1590m, 6 len behind Point Lynas with 54kg at $29. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.
