Canberra Race 7

Oskar Memorials Xmas Cup

Stake: $10,999

HERE COMES BOBBY (1) ran tenth last start at Riverina Paceway over 1740m, beaten 10 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw and he is capable of running another big race. JEKAMIAS (8) has been excellent of late and he made it two in a row when successful at his latest appearance over 1770m at this track, getting home by 4 metres. May need luck at some stage extracting from the inside of the second row but should still be right in the finish. ARK ALERT (7) finished a solid fourth at his most recent appearance over 2170m at this track. He is drawn to receive a cosy run early and if the gaps come at the right time, he can have the last say. THE EX HORSEIST (9) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him finish second over 2240m at Goulburn.

Recent form below what he is capable of. Last start 10th (Fr4) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway, beaten 10 m by Mighty Flying Art (2:01.30) in NR up to 80 on December 6 at $41. The run previous was driven from back in the field when 5th (Fr4) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway beaten 5 m by Scared Stiff (2:03.30) in NR up to 90 on November 29 at $8.50. Draws the inside so worth another chance.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr2) over 2170m at this track, beaten 8 m by Father Bob (2:40.80) in NR up to 65 on December 9 at $12. Before that 9th (Fr1) over 1710m at Goulburn beaten 25 m by The Metal Flyer (2:02.30) in NR up to 60 on December 2 at $17. Cannot enthuse on what we have seen of late.

Last start was driven from back in the field when 8th (Fr6) over 1609m at Menangle was 7th-23.17 at the bell, beaten 17 m by Compete (1:51.80) in NR 56 to 65 on December 10 at $12. Before that, a game effort despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr8) over 2240m at Goulburn was 9th-14.2 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Major Allegiance (2:46.80) in NR up to 55 on December 2 at $9.50. Better than the last run suggests; set to make amends.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace
