Race comment
Finding the front from gate five in a similar field last start, WISPER A SECRET (2) walked them through 60.1 opening half before dialling it up down the back. Despite setting the tempo of a 54.4 close out, he had no answer for TIMS A TROOPER. Back to the mile should be to his favour in chasing the W. TIMS A TROOPER (4) is in super form, as he prepares to tick over $500k in stake earnings. Chasing hard to reel in WISPER A SECRET at the 2138 two starts back, he was the eye-catcher last week, the only runner to eat into the deficit behind LEAP TO FAME. The small field suits. HOT AND TREACHEROUS (1) should be able to tuck in behind the speed and with the soft trip, search for the gaps to grab some minor money. Setting a 2138m standing start track record two starts back, the gate is a big plus.

Race comment
Finding the front from gate five in a similar field last start, WISPER A SECRET (2) walked them through 60.1 opening half before dialling it up down the back. Despite setting the tempo of a 54.4 close out, he had no answer for TIMS A TROOPER. Back to the mile should be to his favour in chasing the W. TIMS A TROOPER (4) is in super form, as he prepares to tick over $500k in stake earnings. Chasing hard to reel in WISPER A SECRET at the 2138 two starts back, he was the eye-catcher last week, the only runner to eat into the deficit behind LEAP TO FAME. The small field suits. HOT AND TREACHEROUS (1) should be able to tuck in behind the speed and with the soft trip, search for the gaps to grab some minor money. Setting a 2138m standing start track record two starts back, the gate is a big plus.
