Race comment
OVERVIEW: The only draw which could possibly have even half-tested TANGO TARA (8) in the first leg of tonight’s Quad is gate eight and that is what he’s lobbed. Ultimately, however, this should merely ensure we get a marginally better price than would otherwise have been the case. Since arriving in Oz TANGO TARA (8) has ebbed and flowed a little at times but his last two runs have been those of a genuine Vic Cup contender so watch for him to sidle sideways at the start to negate the pocket then rip around the field and either park out, or even more likely, just assume control. Either way the race is at his mercy with even luck in transit. On form and class his only possible threat is I CAST NO SHADOW (10) though OZZIE BATTLER (4) is perhaps even more likely to finish second as he’ll cross to the top in a bound then either keep the front or wait for the fave to arrive. If you’re playing wider exotics most of the rest warrant inclusion toward the back end headlined by REGULUS (1) who will be well suited if no further back than three poles, HEZACROCWATCHER (2) who has obvious talent but didn’t set the world on fire fresh, and SOMEBEACHSHADOW (9) who’d be a winning hope on his best form but hasn’t shown that form in two runs back this prep. EARLY SPEED: 4 (Fastest Beginner) + 3? + 2,5?,6? RATINGS: 8/ 10/ 4/ 1/ 2/ 9/ 6/ 3/ 5/ 7

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The only draw which could possibly have even half-tested TANGO TARA (8) in the first leg of tonight’s Quad is gate eight and that is what he’s lobbed. Ultimately, however, this should merely ensure we get a marginally better price than would otherwise have been the case. Since arriving in Oz TANGO TARA (8) has ebbed and flowed a little at times but his last two runs have been those of a genuine Vic Cup contender so watch for him to sidle sideways at the start to negate the pocket then rip around the field and either park out, or even more likely, just assume control. Either way the race is at his mercy with even luck in transit. On form and class his only possible threat is I CAST NO SHADOW (10) though OZZIE BATTLER (4) is perhaps even more likely to finish second as he’ll cross to the top in a bound then either keep the front or wait for the fave to arrive. If you’re playing wider exotics most of the rest warrant inclusion toward the back end headlined by REGULUS (1) who will be well suited if no further back than three poles, HEZACROCWATCHER (2) who has obvious talent but didn’t set the world on fire fresh, and SOMEBEACHSHADOW (9) who’d be a winning hope on his best form but hasn’t shown that form in two runs back this prep. EARLY SPEED: 4 (Fastest Beginner) + 3? + 2,5?,6? RATINGS: 8/ 10/ 4/ 1/ 2/ 9/ 6/ 3/ 5/ 7

Race comment
OVERVIEW: The only draw which could possibly have even half-tested TANGO TARA (8) in the first leg of tonight’s Quad is gate eight and that is what he’s lobbed. Ultimately, however, this should merely ensure we get a marginally better price than would otherwise have been the case. Since arriving in Oz TANGO TARA (8) has ebbed and flowed a little at times but his last two runs have been those of a genuine Vic Cup contender so watch for him to sidle sideways at the start to negate the pocket then rip around the field and either park out, or even more likely, just assume control. Either way the race is at his mercy with even luck in transit. On form and class his only possible threat is I CAST NO SHADOW (10) though OZZIE BATTLER (4) is perhaps even more likely to finish second as he’ll cross to the top in a bound then either keep the front or wait for the fave to arrive. If you’re playing wider exotics most of the rest warrant inclusion toward the back end headlined by REGULUS (1) who will be well suited if no further back than three poles, HEZACROCWATCHER (2) who has obvious talent but didn’t set the world on fire fresh, and SOMEBEACHSHADOW (9) who’d be a winning hope on his best form but hasn’t shown that form in two runs back this prep.

Ultimately, however, this should merely ensure we get a marginally better price than would otherwise have been the case. Since arriving in Oz TANGO TARA (8) has ebbed and flowed a little at times but his last two runs have been those of a genuine Vic Cup contender so watch for him to sidle sideways at the start to negate the pocket then rip around the field and either park out, or even more likely, just assume control. Either way the race is at his mercy with even luck in transit. On form and class his only possible threat is I CAST NO SHADOW (10) though OZZIE BATTLER (4) is perhaps even more likely to finish second as he’ll cross to the top in a bound then either keep the front or wait for the fave to arrive. If you’re playing wider exotics most of the rest warrant inclusion toward the back end headlined by REGULUS (1) who will be well suited if no further back than three poles, HEZACROCWATCHER (2) who has obvious talent but didn’t set the world on fire fresh, and SOMEBEACHSHADOW (9) who’d be a winning hope on his best form but hasn’t shown that form in two runs back this prep.
