Ascot Race 8

The Kia Quokka

Stake: $5,500,000

Time for the big one, The Quokka. OVERPASS (1) is looking for the three-peat and looks on song following a big run in the TJ three weeks ago. The draw is no issue, he'll roll across and make his own luck up on the speed. He's the one to beat. HEADWALL (6) also comes through the TJ where he was unlucky and flashing late in the race. Getting away from the rail is a big tick for him and if he gets an unimpeded run in the straight, he'll take plenty of beating. FRONT PAGE (2) can roll across with OVERPASS and sit up on the speed as he likes to do. His form ties in through OVERPASS and HEADWALL and if he handles the travel and is at his best, he'll give a big sight from up on the speed. JOKERS GRIN (9) was below his best in the Roma Cup but the fresh win was scintillating. Can bounce back third-up and be in the finish. WESTERN EMPIRE (3) creates interest first-up. He's a class horse who maps well and can be flashing late.

Second-up. First-up after four months set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 13 at Randwick in the G1 T J Smith on April 5 over 1200m, nose behind Briasa with 58.5kg at $5. Previously second-up 8th of 12 at Flemington in the G1 Vrc Classic on November 9 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Sunshine In Paris with 58.5kg at $6.50. Ran up to his best in the TJ and will take catching again.

Second run back. First-up after four months held ground to the line 2nd of 13 at Rosehill in the G1 The Galaxy on March 22 over 1100m, 0.8 len behind Private Harry carrying 55kg at $12.

Comes off a 49 day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Ellerslie in the G3 Kings Plate on March 8 over 1200m, slow going 5.5 len behind Alabama Lass with 58kg at $4. The start before that won by a nose at Ellerslie G1 Sistema Railway January 25 over 1200m in soft going defeating Alabama Lass with 56.5kg at $6.60. Not going well enough. Form has been franked in Victoria and he could be a flyer at odds.

Racing well. At the latest run 3rd of 13 at Randwick in the G1 T J Smith on April 5 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Briasa with 58.5kg at $31. The run before that took up a position near the tail 2nd of 15 at Flemington in the G1 Newmarket on March 8 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind Joliestar carrying 52.5kg at $14. Draw is a big tick for him and he'll be flying late.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Freshened for 49 days. Resuming eased back early on 6th of 9 at Pinjarra in the LR Pinjarra Clsc on February 23 over 1300m, 3.5 len behind Snowdome with 60kg at $14. Second-up came home strongly from last on the turn and won by 0.8 len at Bunbury LR Bunbury Stakes March 8 over 1400m defeating Final Siren carrying 59.5kg at $13. Good win last start but this is much harder.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming won by 1.1 len at Albany Bluff Knoll March 16 over 1099m on a rain affected track defeating Devine Belief with 57.5kg at $2.70. Last start eased back early on 7th of 11 at this track in the G3 Roma Cup on April 12 over 1100m, 6 len behind The Boss Lady with 58.5kg at $4. Disappointing last start and needs to lift.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up favourite; won by 1.0 len at this track Rock Magic March 29 over 1000m defeating Keep Reading with 55kg at $2.30. Second run from a spell came from midfield; 2nd of 11 at this track in the G3 Roma Cup on April 12 over 1100m, nose behind The Boss Lady carrying 58.5kg at $2.25. Better than he showed last start and can pounce third-up in his grand final.

Second-up. First-up after four months won by a nose at this track G3 Roma Cup April 12 over 1100m defeating Jokers Grin carrying 56.5kg at $7. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 2nd of 14 at this track in the LR Jungle Mist on November 16 over 1200m, 2 len behind Baby Paris carrying 55kg at $4.50. Big chance to add to the picket fence. Big chance to repeat the dose.

Useful mare. Last start ran on from midfield; 3rd of 11 at this track in the G3 Roma Cup on April 12 over 1100m, 1.1 len behind The Boss Lady carrying 56.5kg at $9. The race before that won by a long-neck at this track LR S Gwynne March 15 over 1400m defeating Bonjoy with 55kg at $3.40. Hard to see her making the necessary improvement.
