R1- MY FURY was excellent first up in Saturday 3yo grade. Was coming off a 450m trial into an unsuitable 1000m trip but picked up really well late to finish third behind The Front Bar. Last start was straight to 1300 when a short priced favourite but hit a flat spot like she did first up but again hit the line late for second. Sticks to 1300 here and drawn the outside of a small field can drop back to last and hopefully get wound up a little earlier. Parnham on may just make the difference.
R2- RED FIFTY THREE has been trialling well for his debut. His first trial in April was behind a smart one in Ponyo and jumped well there before sitting just off the leader and finding the line well. At his recent trial he jumped well and crossed from a middle draw, rolled along and found when asked to win in slick time beating Beloved Star who looks hard to beat on Thursday. Wide draw makes things tricky but he looks capable of crossing down to at least the breeze and looks to have these covered ability wise.
R3- LOVE DRUNK BABY looks to have furnished into a nice horse after a long spell. Had one run back in November off a couple of handy trials and did a little bit wrong but still got within 1L of Mercanto in third. Is now with the Pearce team and was really good in a recent trial. Jumped well before being grabbed hold of to sit deep but extended nicely under pressure in the straight. Didn’t beat much but the manner of the win was impressive and draws to get a soft run close to the speed here.
R4- BLUE HORSE is a mare who seems to appreciate backing up. Was brilliant in winning two back when racing five days after a mid prep trial. Sat last and was bolting on the turn and let down to win by 2.5L eased down. Last week didn’t get the right race shape when sitting last between horses off a crawl but still hit the line well. Gets to 1400 in a race where they should get along at a reasonable tempo and draws to sit back without getting boxed in. Hard to knock the Maley team at the minute.
R5- YULONG EARTH is not an easy horse to catch but this looks the kind of race he could pinch. Draws low in a race where they should really get along behind Elafella and Run D’affaire Run. His fresh record is very good especially when you consider he almost could’ve won the other two if he had gone straight. Went straight under pressure in both his recent trials and his latest was good when travelling into it before being chopped out. This looks a nice starting point for him.
R6- CITY CIRCLE continues to race deep into a preparation which is impressive for such a lightly framed mare. Has perhaps been a little stiff to bump into Wilchino at each of her last three but has been good behind her in fast run races. Strikes a much weaker race here and draws to get a soft run leaders back or even leading if nothing wants to cross. From there she’ll run another honest race and deserves to pick one up before she retires.
R7- Best Bet: SEE YA CHAMP is becoming a magnet for bad luck but is bursting to win one. Has been over racing a bit early in her races so think the blinkers coming off is a positive as is the reengagement of Harvey. Went close behind Tena Koutou four back before a string of luckless runs including last start when unable to get out until late but hitting the line hard for a close up fourth. Will again need luck from one but think she can sit a touch closer here and Harvey is the right man to make some luck.
R8- MARLINI has really found form her last three. Sat close in a fast run race behind Yangtze Rapids when fourth at $151 before leading and running around late at 1400 in a handy class one field when fifth. Came back to 1200 last start and took a sit after jumping well. Was a race that was mostly dominated by those making wide runs from the back and she did a good job to pick up for a close fourth. Sticks to 1200 here but draws wide with an apprentice back on so should come out running which plays to her strengths.

Certainly did and Dhurine cost me a juicy all up place. Deserves a lot more than a tap on the soldier.

The comments under the race results in CRIS said that he pleaded guilty to not riding it out, so i presume he is in strife. What the penalty will be is now the question.
