G2 – 1600m – Turf

1

The United States

G1 WFA winner at 2000m in March. Only run this season was unlucky 3.75 lengths 6th to Awesome Rock in the G2 Dato’ Tan Chin Nam Stakes at this course and distance on 3 September. Races well fresh.

2

Stratum Star

Fitter for second run this season when strong finishing 3.1 lengths 5th to stablemate Voodoo Lad in G3 Moonga Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield last Saturday.

3

He Or She

Find this easier than latest run when creditable third, in field of 3, behind Cox Plate runners Winx and Black Heart Bart in the G1 Caulfield Stakes (2000m) on 8 October. Beaten 6 lengths in that race after two G1 placings at 1600m and 1800m.

4

Lidari

Doing best work late when 5.75 lengths 10th to Ulmann in Listed Headquarters Handicap (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October. That was first run since March when placed in Listed race at this distance.

5

Royal Rapture

Won five in a row before stepping up to G1 level and finishing 1 lengths 4th to He’s Our Rokkii in the Toorak Handicap (1600m) on 8 October. Can’t ignore.

6

Tashbeeh

Little below best form at past two but this is his best distance. Jockey felt ground may have been too firm for him when 4.75 lengths 9 to Ulmann in Listed Headquarters Handicap (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October.

7

Federal

Ran on well when 0.4 lengths 3rd to Ulmann in Listed Headquarters Handicap (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October. This is first run beyond 1400m.

8

Ulmann

Won three of past five and was impressive in neck win from Akavaroun in Listed Headquarters Handicap (1400m) at Flemington on 2 October. Disadvantaged at the weights in this race but in very good form.

9

Observational

Back to 1600m after 6.8 lengths 5th to Real Love in G3 JRA Cup (2040m) at this track on 30 September. Changed stables since that run.
