Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are three seriously challenging contests on this nine-race programme and the opening Quaddie leg represents the first. Fundamentally speaking, the map for this event is largely unpredictable, and even if you get it right that may not lead to glory. In these situations, we typically abandon our technical tools and simply side with class/in-form commodities; and no runner fits that bill better than VANQUISH STRIDE (6). Yes, he draws awkwardly again tonight, but so do most of his chief adversaries and anybody that’s witnessed this fellow’s past two runs are well-aware he’s bursting at the seams to taste triumph right now. The same could be said of COBBER (5) who put the writing on the wall two back and was wonderful again last weekend when zooming from last to first before being handled by a future star in Justalittlesip. The other ‘class’ runners are EVER HOPING (8) who Greg Sugars said is working the equal of A GS White Socks at home, and SERG BLANCO (11) who drops in grade from contesting the recent Mildura Cup Final. If we re-gather our technical tools for just a moment, however, there is one more runner worthy of consideration. JILLIBY NITRO (2) isn’t used off the arm too often these days, but he may cross the pole horse under his own steam. If he does, then hands up to a rival like MIGHTY FLYING ART (3) there’s every chance he’ll rifle through and cause a minor upset. EARLY SPEED: 3 (Potential Leader) + 2?,4 + 5?,7?

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are three seriously challenging contests on this nine-race programme and the opening Quaddie leg represents the first. Fundamentally speaking, the map for this event is largely unpredictable, and even if you get it right that may not lead to glory. In these situations, we typically abandon our technical tools and simply side with class/in-form commodities; and no runner fits that bill better than VANQUISH STRIDE (6). Yes, he draws awkwardly again tonight, but so do most of his chief adversaries and anybody that’s witnessed this fellow’s past two runs are well-aware he’s bursting at the seams to taste triumph right now. The same could be said of COBBER (5) who put the writing on the wall two back and was wonderful again last weekend when zooming from last to first before being handled by a future star in Justalittlesip. The other ‘class’ runners are EVER HOPING (8) who Greg Sugars said is working the equal of A GS White Socks at home, and SERG BLANCO (11) who drops in grade from contesting the recent Mildura Cup Final. If we re-gather our technical tools for just a moment, however, there is one more runner worthy of consideration. JILLIBY NITRO (2) isn’t used off the arm too often these days, but he may cross the pole horse under his own steam. If he does, then hands up to a rival like MIGHTY FLYING ART (3) there’s every chance he’ll rifle through and cause a minor upset. EARLY SPEED: 3 (Potential Leader) + 2?,4 + 5?,7?

Race comment
OVERVIEW: There are three seriously challenging contests on this nine-race programme and the opening Quaddie leg represents the first. Fundamentally speaking, the map for this event is largely unpredictable, and even if you get it right that may not lead to glory. In these situations, we typically abandon our technical tools and simply side with class/in-form commodities; and no runner fits that bill better than VANQUISH STRIDE (6). Yes, he draws awkwardly again tonight, but so do most of his chief adversaries and anybody that’s witnessed this fellow’s past two runs are well-aware he’s bursting at the seams to taste triumph right now. The same could be said of COBBER (5) who put the writing on the wall two back and was wonderful again last weekend when zooming from last to first before being handled by a future star in Justalittlesip. The other ‘class’ runners are EVER HOPING (8) who Greg Sugars said is working the equal of A GS White Socks at home, and SERG BLANCO (11) who drops in grade from contesting the recent Mildura Cup Final. If we re-gather our technical tools for just a moment, however, there is one more runner worthy of consideration. JILLIBY NITRO (2) isn’t used off the arm too often these days, but he may cross the pole horse under his own steam. If he does, then hands up to a rival like MIGHTY FLYING ART (3) there’s every chance he’ll rifle through and cause a minor upset. EARLY SPEED: 3 (Potential Leader) + 2?,4 + 5?,7?

OVERVIEW: There are three seriously challenging contests on this nine-race programme and the opening Quaddie leg represents the first. Fundamentally speaking, the map for this event is largely unpredictable, and even if you get it right that may not lead to glory. In these situations, we typically abandon our technical tools and simply side with class/in-form commodities; and no runner fits that bill better than VANQUISH STRIDE (6). Yes, he draws awkwardly again tonight, but so do most of his chief adversaries and anybody that’s witnessed this fellow’s past two runs are well-aware he’s bursting at the seams to taste triumph right now. The same could be said of COBBER (5) who put the writing on the wall two back and was wonderful again last weekend when zooming from last to first before being handled by a future star in Justalittlesip. The other ‘class’ runners are EVER HOPING (8) who Greg Sugars said is working the equal of A GS White Socks at home, and SERG BLANCO (11) who drops in grade from contesting the recent Mildura Cup Final. If we re-gather our technical tools for just a moment, however, there is one more runner worthy of consideration. JILLIBY NITRO (2) isn’t used off the arm too often these days, but he may cross the pole horse under his own steam. If he does, then hands up to a rival like MIGHTY FLYING ART (3) there’s every chance he’ll rifle through and cause a minor upset. EARLY SPEED: 3 (Potential Leader) + 2?,4 + 5?,7?

OVERVIEW: There are three seriously challenging contests on this nine-race programme and the opening Quaddie leg represents the first. Fundamentally speaking, the map for this event is largely unpredictable, and even if you get it right that may not lead to glory. In these situations, we typically abandon our technical tools and simply side with class/in-form commodities; and no runner fits that bill better than VANQUISH STRIDE (6). Yes, he draws awkwardly again tonight, but so do most of his chief adversaries and anybody that’s witnessed this fellow’s past two runs are well-aware he’s bursting at the seams to taste triumph right now.
