Barrier 7 · Jockey Ms Lucy Fiore · Trainer Daniel Morton · 57kg · Form 91312x22

Model win 3.50 · place 1.68

Was agonizingly close last run at this venue. Has not missed the money this preparation in 2 attempts. Should go very close.

Has put together two excellent seconds this campaign, most recently beaten half a length by Levati Dimezzo at this track after racing wide throughout as a dominant odds-on favourite. His prior second in the Listed Max Simmonds Stakes, beaten a nose by Big Red Zoom, reads strongly for this. Beaten last start, but lost now admirers and can land the knockout blow.

Blinkers go on for the Grand Final and he has lost no admirers with no luck this campaign.

Looks primed for this third up. Powered home fresh, not far off last start. He can win.

Third run of the campaign, with consecutive Ascot seconds including a narrow second over 1100m on soft ground. Strong recent figures and proven soft-ground form make this a leading winning chance.

Found another gear when winning by a margin of just short of 3 1/2L last start at Belmont but rising in class. Amongst the placegetters at every start this preparation. Watch for a sign in the market.

Won a NMW1Y at Belmont Park by three and a half lengths last start, justifying a short odds-on quote and putting Chixfromthestix away quickly. That was mid-week grade and this is harder, but the margin and authority of the win were hard to ignore. Trendy off the big midweek win and he's right in this with further progression.

Started odds-on and won by a space at Belmont last start. Harder task but would not dismiss.

Third-up after a 3.4-length win over 1200m at Belmont, following a second over 1100m. The decisive latest win and market respect keep this among the leading chances.

Model win 8.92 · place 3.00

Came on strongly when 2nd last run at this track and promising career start. Interesting gear change of blinkers on first time. Betting is the best guide.

Resumed with a strong second in the Listed Belgravia Stakes, beaten just over a length by Beatty after being bumped at the start and still closing into a placing. She had won an Open at Belmont Park the run prior to a break, beating Levati Dimezzo, and Chris Parnham has a strong record on her. Gutsy in the Belgravia an that different formline looks as strong reference for this.

Chased home strongly to place in the Belgravia first up. Needs luck from horror barrier.

Second run of the prep, following a second in an Ascot Listed 1200m race despite interference at the start. First-time blinkers and strong sprint credentials make this a key hope.

Model win 13.35 · place 3.98

Ran on hard when winning last time at this track and putting a tidy record together so far. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Must respect.

Beat Afireofgidgeecoals by half a length at this track last start despite being held up late and having difficulty getting clear, which adds merit to the win. His start prior second in a Class 1 also had excuses after a slow getaway and another hold-up. Edged out Afireofgidgeecoals last start and has to be in calculations on that effort.

Arguably should have won fresh then made amends with big win in the Prelude. He can win again.

Won over 1100m at Ascot on soft ground last start and is now at the third run of the campaign. Strong recent figures stand out, though 1200m is a new test; still rates a major threat.

Although being overrun still grabbed 3rd last time here and gets a favourable draw. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Solid claims.

Went close last start when third behind Levati Dimezzo at this track, beaten a length and a half at generous odds after tracking the lead. That was a clear improvement on her Belmont sixth as favourite over 1400m. Not far away in the Prelude and has claims on that effort.

Raced on speed but had to settle for third here last start. Drawn ideally. Perhaps a place.

Fourth-up after a third over 1100m at Ascot, with a soft-track 1200m win earlier in the prep. The return to 1200m suits and keeps the claims solid.

Model win 23.29 · place 5.99

Odds of $13.00 and didn't attack the line when 12th last start at this track but good career start. Going well this preparation. Commands respect.

Was plain in the Listed Belgravia Stakes when 12th, beaten seven and a half lengths, after jumping awkwardly and offering little. His Listed Max Simmonds Stakes win two back is the key reference, beating Afireofgidgeecoals by a nose on soft ground at this track. Better placed here and can bounce back to form.

Finished too well for 3YO Classic rivals here first up then forget Belgravia run (never on track). Place.

A wide 12th over 1200m last time came after losing a plate, and the campaign is now at its fourth outing. The earlier 1000m Listed win shows ability, but a rebound is essential.

Close to claiming the win last time around here and gets the perfect alley. Coming to a new trainer but taking on stronger opponents. Prefer to watch.

Finished strongly for second in a NMW1Y at this track last start, beaten a long neck at big odds after beginning slowly and striking interference near the 100m. She was third to Anaconda Jones at Belmont Park prior and remains unbeaten outside the placings. Not here.

Ex Jason Pateman. In consistent form. Unlucky here last start. Harder but must include.

A close second over 1100m at Ascot followed a 1200m Class 1 win, with the prep now five runs along. Recent progression keeps this in contention.

Picked up nicely to win last run at Belmont but challenged by more formidable competitors. Might be ridden for luck. Will need to run very well.

Arrives second-up after winning a Class 3 at Belmont over 1000m, coming from just off the speed despite beginning slowly. That was mid-week company and this is a harder assignment, though his earlier Open win at Belmont Park showed he has more than one string to his bow. Ticking along well.

Had right run and finished too well at Belmont first up. Harder but would not leave out.

Returns for a second-up 1200m run after a Belmont Class 3 win over 1000m. The latest result and an earlier 1200m placing make this a solid chance.

Model win 39.42 · place 8.88

At $6.00 outmatched in the late stages of the race when 6th last run at this venue. Tough ask.

Was safely held in the Listed Burgess Queen Stakes over 1400m at this track, finishing sixth and beaten five and a half lengths without a clear excuse. Her start prior second in a 1 Metro Win was sound, beaten just under a length, and she has won at this track and distance. Looking to others.

Chased home hard when placed first up, just held ground in the Burgess Queen. Place looks best.

After seventh in the Ascot Listed 1400m race, this is the third start of the campaign; a second over 1000m came before that. The return to 1200m is preferable, but the recent form is mixed.

Model win 51.79 · place 10.90

Jumped at $15.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 6th last start here but challenged by less formidable competitors. Should muster plenty of early speed. Could be in the mix.

Led and faded when sixth in the G3 Prince Of Wales Stakes over 1000m, beaten just under four lengths after racing keenly. He was also well held in the Listed Max Simmonds Stakes, but his overall record is sound and he has handled wet tracks well. Can be thereabouts.

Plenty of speed but hasn't been finishing his races off. Must be a doubt at the 1200m.

The likely leader on the map is third-up and comes off a sixth in the Ascot G3 over 1000m, after finishing 11th there. The return to 1200m and recent results leave a genuine query.

Model win 43.81 · place 9.61

Started $2.60 and tailed off to finish 6th last start at this venue and racing in stronger company. Should muster plenty of early toe. Considering others.

Had excuses when sixth as a well-supported favourite in a 1 Metro Win at this track, being held up in the straight before finishing two and a half lengths away. His Belmont win prior in NMW1Y grade was decisive, leading and putting a gap on the field. Honest profile, but this is tougher than recent assignments.

Led all the way at Belmont two back then beaten favourite here last start (held up). Place.

The fourth run of the campaign follows a sixth over 1100m, with a 1000m win two starts ago. The rise to 1200m asks more, though recent figures keep the claims alive.

Backs up quickly. Started at $8.50 and ran 4th last time around here but will be well suited at the trip. Performing honestly this campaign. Would need to step up.

Backs up quickly after finishing fourth in a 1 Metro Win over 1400m at this track, beaten just over three lengths after racing keenly. His previous fourth had more merit, coming from back in the field and being held up near the 150m. In the mix.

Looked a touch unlucky behind Roger here two back. Tired late last start. This is harder.

Deep into the campaign after three consecutive placings, most recently fourth over 1400m at Ascot. The return to 1200m should sharpen the chance, but the recent finishes fall short of making a compelling winning case.

Jumped at $21.00 and folded up in the straight when 10th last run at this track. Gets back and needs luck. Not at all out of this race.

Has been beaten just over five lengths in both runs back, including tenth in the Listed Belgravia Stakes at big odds with no obvious excuse. The reason to keep her in the mix is her earlier track-and-trip win and the fact she is two from four overall, with upside if she finds that form again. Had no luck in both runs this campaign and if she gets a chance here she can surprise.

No luck in either run back. Will be big odds but with luck she may sneak a place.

The third run of the campaign follows two consecutive 10ths at Ascot, most recently over 1200m. Needs a sharp turnaround to threaten.

Dashed home to win last time at Northam but up against stronger opponents. Has run into the placings all attempts this preparation. Considerable improvement needed.

Won a Mdn at Northam last start by just over half a length after being held up approaching the 200m, and that followed a narrow second at the same venue. The form is genuine enough at maiden level, but she now rises from provincial grade into a much harder black-type race. Not here.

Finally got her maiden out of the way at Northam last start. Much tougher but she has placed at listed level.

A Northam maiden win over 1100m followed a second there, and this is the third run of the campaign. An earlier 13th in a G2 over 1200m makes the class rise a stiff ask.

Started at $1.65 and struggled with the pace when 6th last time at the track and up against tougher rivals. In a purple patch of form this preparation. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Had genuine interference when sixth in a NMW1Y at this track last start as an odds-on favourite, but he still faded late and was beaten two and a half lengths. The run prior behind One Last Resort at Belmont Park left him nearly four lengths away. Not here.

Placed at Belmont two back then forget run here (never clear). He can figure in this.

Seventh-up after a traffic-affected sixth over 1100m, following a third and a win over 1200m. The distance suits, but recent figures look modest for this grade.

Perfume Princess

Barrier 13 · Jockey Jordan Turner · Trainer Simon A Miller · 55kg · Form 356x884117

Model win 155 · place 24.95

Odds of $41.00 and finished 7th last start at this track. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Would rather look at others.

Finished seventh in the Listed Burgess Queen Stakes at this track, beaten six and a half lengths at long odds after travelling close enough but not going on. She had won a Class 3 at this venue before that, so there is some ability at 1200m, and the stable has a strong Placid Ark Stakes history. Better placed in something easier.

Won two in a row before fading late in the Burgess Queen. One for first fours.

Seventh-up after seventh in the Ascot Listed 1400m race, having won over 1200m and 1400m in the two starts before. The return to 1200m is a plus, but the latest effort needs to be put behind.

Boy Crush

Barrier 15 · Jockey Fred W Kersley · Trainer Luke Fernie · 57kg · Form 1248X1430

Started at $11.00 and faded to finish 13th last time at this venue.

Disappointed in the Listed Belgravia Stakes when second last, beaten just over eight lengths after leading and offering little late. His start prior was much better, a close third in the Listed Max Simmonds Stakes behind Big Red Zoom, so the ability is there. Best form won't be far away.

Only just missed in a driving finish here two back then faded late in the Belgravia. Prefer at 1000m.

A 13th over 1200m at Ascot last start followed a third over 1000m, and this is the fifth-up assignment. Lost a plate and raced keenly last time, so a sharp rebound is required.

Flying Swagman

Barrier 16 · Jockey Paul Harvey · Trainer D R Harrison · 57kg · Form 5X182

Just shy of the win last time here but stepping up to a higher level. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. Producing consistent results this preparation.

Was beaten half a length as an odds-on favourite in a Class 1 at this track last start, travelling well but being pipped late over 1000m. His Listed Belgravia Stakes run prior was only fair, finishing eighth and beaten three and a half lengths after racing keenly. Can't have.

Started long odds-on here last start but found one better. Prefer in something easier.

Most recently a narrow second over 1000m at Ascot and now at the fourth run of the prep. An eighth over 1200m sits between that effort and a prior 1100m win, leaving mixed but live claims.

That Is Justice

Barrier 20 · Trainer D M Luciani · 55kg · Form 1

Rounded them up to win last run at Belmont and having second career run. Competing in a more challenging class.

Won on debut in a Mdn at Belmont Park over 1000m, beating Keppel Gate by just over a length as favourite after racing keenly in the straight. She also trialled a few weeks ago, so the early grounding is there. Better placed earlier in the card.

Backed into favouritism and got the jub done at Belmont on debut. She can measure up.

A Belmont maiden win over 1000m on debut sets up a second-up step to 1200m. The stronger grade and longer trip are sharp tests, so a place looks the limit.

More Darling

Barrier 14 · Trainer Luke Fernie · 55kg · Form 644

Jumped at $10.00 and crept into 4th last time here but challenged by a tougher grade.

Worked home fairly for fourth in a Mdn at this track last start, beaten a length and a half after covering ground from back in the field. She was also fourth in a Belmont Park Mdn prior, so the recent efforts are respectable without producing a win. Looking to others.

Liked the way she hit the line when beaten less than two lengths here last start. Each-way claims.

Two consecutive fourths over 1200m frame the fourth run of the prep, most recently in a troubled Ascot maiden. Has not threatened at this level and is hard to recommend.

Racing and Sports

AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS (1) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten half a length into second over 1100m at this track after being in the firing line all the way. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. ACHY BREAKY (11) sat just off the speed and fought on well to finish second when resuming last start at this course and distance. Chris Parnham who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Will strip fitter so expect her to feature. ONE LAST RESORT (10) was an effortless winner last time over 1200m at Belmont Park, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Must be respected. BIG RED ZOOM (6) drew wide and was pretty plain last time out when 7 lengths from the winner in 12th at this course and distance. Holly Watson who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Don't underestimate.

Dabble

AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS (1) Close up last run at this venue. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Appears well in this. BIG RED ZOOM (6) Weakened to finish 12th last start here but showing consistent performance in races. Has won 2 from 3 attempts this campaign. Worth consideration. LEVATI DIMEZZO (4) Reeled them in to win last time at this track and solid career start. Has not missed the placings this preparation in 2 attempts. Possesses very good finishing speed. Goes close. GAINTREE (14) Claimed late when 3rd last time at this track and can find a nice position from the draw. Has shown early pace in races to date. Worth strong consideration.

Racing and Sports

AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS (1) flew home to just miss fresh before sitting wide and being gunned down as the $1.40 favourite in the Prelude. Things look to work out much nicer for him here however and the blinkers being reapplied should help. Can go one better now. ONE LAST RESORT (10) was very impressive out to 1200m at Belmont when running away and winning in good time. This is tougher, but he hinted that he's a horse on the rise and this looks to shape favourably from a favourable barrier. Looks to have a high ceiling and can make an impression. I want to keep COS I AM (13) safe as she's had absolutely no chance in her two runs back. She looked ready to slice through in the Belgravia last start before being chopped out at a crucial stage. Thinking we haven't seen the best of her yet and with a touch of luck, she can feature. ACHY BREAKY (11) was good fresh in the Belgravia and has claims here with the blinkers on. LEVATI DIMEZZO (4) beat AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS last start and has to be included.

Best Bets

I'm keen on AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS. Very good in defeat at both starts this time in, he'll relish meeting his opposition at set weights. He draws to get every chance stalking the speed and the blinkers go on. ONE LAST RESORT attacks this off a big midweek win where he parked on the speed and dominated his rivals. This is a big step up but he's a horse on the rise and Pike retains the ride. LEVATI DIMEZZO beat home Afireofgidgeecoals in the Prelude but meets him 4kg worse and draws wide. ACHY BREAKY next best.

Racing Central

DAWN DANCER (2) has the lead map, with ANACONDA JONES (8) and GAINTREE (14) also mapped on pace. That could test the speed and give off-mid AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS (1) a chance to finish. AFIREOFGIDGEECOALS (1) brings consecutive Ascot seconds, including a narrow second over 1100m on soft ground, and the strongest recent figures. LEVATI DIMEZZO (4) comes off an Ascot soft-track 1100m win, with the step to 1200m the main test. ACHY BREAKY (11) finished second in an Ascot Listed 1200m race despite interference at the start. ONE LAST RESORT (10) won a Belmont 1200m race by 3.4 lengths last start and is well found in the market, though stakes company presents a stronger test.
