SELECTIONS: SPORTING RAGE (4), OWEN THE SAINTS (1), MISTER JIMARINGLE (8), AMERICAN GUY (2)
OVERVIEW: SPORTING RAGE (4) is racing in terrific form of late and his chances are always improved by the opportunity to show his gate speed. He will be stamped urgent here to look for the lead and is coming off a career-peak mile rate, albeit from behind the leader where he had every chance. The distance is in his favour to go all the way, and he is a winner at this track.
OWEN THE SAINTS (1) gets a draw that could see him use enough speed to potentially map behind the leader here. His best performances come when mapping close with cover, as evidenced by his win back in June. He’s open to sharp improvement and is a strong winning chance if the top pick is vulnerable late. MISTER JIMARINGLE (8) was a winner in this grade three runs back and has just found things a bit rich his past couple. The soft draw will help him be strong late if they go too hard. AMERICAN GUY (2) is racing better than his form may suggest, maps softly and has minor claims, as do HELLAVASTORY (3) and LEONARD (5) if the map and tempo work out.
BACK: SPORTING RAGE (4) – 2.5 units (win)
