Race 5
#2 Fighting Commando (2) T: Neil Hocking J: Ms Minonette Kennedy (a2) (59kg)
Comes here with two wins from six attempts this campaign.IS A TRACK SPECIALIST WITH THREE WINS AND A SECOND TO HIS NAME FROM SIX STARTS.
Was able to sit on the speed last start but got boxed in when it mattered.
Gains the claim of Kennedy who has had success abroad with three wins and two seconds from seven starts with the horse.
Should be able to find cover in the run and can peel off when it needs to.
In an easier grade here and is a leading hope.
Race 6
#9. Galaxy Belle (12) T: K A Lees J: Andrew Mallyon (57kg)
After a solid performance win at Grafton two starts back saw a major rise in trip last start at Doomben.
Began very awkwardly and didn’t hit the strides finishing seven of nine.
Is untried at 1800m and have been waiting for the mare to get a crack at this distance and in this grade.
Mallyon gets the ride who has had success aboard previously.
The danger looks to be number 11, Taaffeite, who receives a healthy claim and can run well.
Happy to stick to my guns here and give it another chance. Can win.
Race 7
#12. Aquajak (5) T: Alan L Jones J: Mark Du Plessis (54.5kg)
Was able to show promise in its last start when finishing second behind the short priced favourite.
Will give a forward showing and has had success at this track and distance previously.
Jockey, Mark Du Plessis, retains the ride which is another positive. Top chance
