Race comments
TAVI TIME (12) classy miler who gave them a galloping lesson second up with the 60kg when a comfortable winner over the mile at Warwick Farm on October 16. Sits on the limit from the right gate and he can finish over the top of these with the winkers going on. HERE TO SHOCK (1) tough gelding racing in career best form in stronger company. Chasing his third straight victory after defeating a classy line up when taking out the Alan Brown Stakes over 1400m at Rosehill on October 12. Maps well with the 62kg and sure to figure prominently. SUPARAZI (8) consistent Wangaratta trained gelding with a good record over the mile. Motored late from the wide gate when sixth in the G2 Crystl Mile at Moonee Valley on October 26. Each way player. DETONATOR JACK (2) proven miler who was a total forgive from the wide draw when a poor 20th in the G1 Epsom Handicap at this track on October 5. Similar set up here but will find this grade much easier. The chances don't end there.
