Gordo takes aim at Saturday's 2yo Feature

RAND - Saturday, 4 February 2017

Rail: Out 6m Entire Circuit Weather: Overcast Track: Good 4 Updated 2/2 - 7:58am

Race 2

01:25pm HINCHINBROOK PLATE 1100m

 

  1. VERANILLO (4) 56kg

T: John O'Shea (Agnes Banks/Hawkesbury) J: James Doyle

Decent win last prep sitting outside lead 3 wide putting pressure on, strongish late,

might have been complimented by the weak opposition

Only 1 794 trial, not flash time, alright style

Chance but probably will be unders

 

  1. ACE HIGH (5) 56kg

T: David Payne (Rosehill) J: Adam Hyeronimus

Not a good enough trial to win this with these connections

 

 

  1. TAKING AIM (6) 56kg

T: Peter and Paul Snowden (Randwick) J: Hugh Bowman

Very impressed by last start 2nd to Menari, sat outside lead and was strong late against

a good one ++

Schofield - Bowman +( ? recent )

Fitness edge on other chances

 

  1. EDEN ROC (7) 56kg

T: Michael, Wayne and John Hawkes (Rosehill) J: Tommy Berry

Stable and jockey momentum types and not seeing it at the moment

Has nice SP off some very nice trials

Chance but probably not going to get value

 

  1. LIGHTZ (2) 56kg

T: Jim and Greg Lee (Randwick) J: Jason Collett

Has the best time of the runners in this race off the 23/1 trials but not

by as much as published.

How much upside?

Smokey

 

  1. MOSSMAN GORGE (9) 56kg

T: Matthew Dale (Canberra) J: Not Notified

Smashed opposition at Canberra but the time not crash hot

It was a weird race, there's a possibility this horse's ability to run time

was hidden

Too many ? could entertain at a very long price

 

  1. CUBA (3) 56kg

T: John P Thompson (Randwick) J: Tye Angland

Would want to see a lot of style and upside to entertain backing

a horse out of the 2yr trials on 23/1 in this race

Didn't see it

 

  1. MOLTEN (8) 56kg

T: Peter and Paul Snowden (Randwick) J: Glyn Schofield

Same as 8

 

  1. THE MAN (1) 56kg

T: John P Thompson (Randwick) J: Joshua Parr

Same as 8

 

  1. EXCEEDS (12) 54kg

T: James Cummings (Randwick) J: Brenton Avdulla

Liked the win last start, has a fitness edge.

Will probably find a couple with more ability

 

  1. GRASSLANDS (10) 54kg

T: Michael Freedman (Randwick) J: Tim Clark

Stable was lucky to get one on us last week

Hasn't shown enough

 

*Official times from 23/1 W FM trials are considerably out but didn't

result in any significant rating changes.

 

NO CLEAR STANDOUT. Could end up backing a few but WILL DEFINITELY

BE HAVING SOMETHING ON 3 TAKING AIM, probably e/w
