Form Analysis: Redcliffe Jun 03

RACE TWO

MEGA STAR (2) is in the zone, completing a threepeat last start in fine style. Easing forward from gate 3 to cut the breeze, he never looked in danger when claiming a 5m victory. That followed a 19m demolition in putting them away when doing it the tough way. This is a little tougher, but he can make the rise.

BILLBOARD BONNIE (8) struck trouble in the run here 2 starts back and was forced to chase hard and was game in a mid-field finish. Taken back from gate 4 last start, she was wide off the track in sweeping around them to claim the prize. Settling handy she can look to throw it down again.

ONE OFF (3) has been runner-up in 3 of his past 5 outings, the latest when making a closing surge to be within a half-head of the winner. From the gate he can look to fire the 1^st shot.

MAYWYN NO REGRETS (1) should appreciate the return to the triangle after fading when the power went on late over the 2138m of the 4YO Mares Triad. Back to the sprint trip from this gate, she can’t be discounted.

SELECTIONS: MEGA STAR (2), BILLBOARD BONNIE (8), ONE OFF (3), MAYWYN NO REGRETS (1)

RACE THREE

JUST JOSHIN (1) was wide off the track last start when trying to make in impression from back in the field after retreating from gate 6 and finishing 7m from the winner. Closing strongly the start prior when 4m away from the subsequent winner SO BOBS YOUR UNCLE, he can look to capitalise on his best gate for some time.

ARBIT MAJOR (3) has missed a top-3 twice in his 11 outings since joining the Donny Smith yard. Locked away from inside the 2^nd line last start, he was hitting the line in nice order when 3m from the winner BLUE MOON RISING. Early position will be key, but will be in for the fight.

BRADNESS ELDEFUEGO (7) will find this easier than what he has been facing as he tackles the triangle for just the 2^nd time. Well beaten last start behind the in-form ULTIMATE AD, he will be ready to take a closing shot.

INNER LIGHT (2) makes his 1^st outing in Qld and will be stepping out for his 1^st race appearance since September. Trialling in good order for his return, he stays under watch from this gate.

SELECTIONS: JUST JOSHIN (1), ARBIT MAJOR (3), BRADNESS ELDEFUEGO (7), INNER LIGHT (2)
SUGGESTED BET: JUST JOSHIN (1) to win

RACE FOUR

SIGNORINA JUJON (6) comes up with the wide gate at her 2^nd run back from a break. Returning with a fast-finishing 2^nd when only a head in arrears of victory, her last start of the previous campaign saw her mid-field behind the start filly PELOSI. With a smart record on the triangle, she can overcome the gate.

TRACES OF TARA (1) found the front over the sprint trip last start and was able to control the tempo, running even splits in front to hold on for a half-head victory to make it wins at 2 of her past 4 starts. The big query is her record at the middle-distance, but with the options, she can be in the fight.

GUY LOOKS GOOD (3) was chiming into the action nicely last start when finishing 3m from the passing lane winner LANCELOT BROMAC in holding 3^rd. A tough winner here 3 starts back, he can feature again.

MUCHO GUAPA (2) was a winner when leading all the way over this trip 2 starts back when 2^nd up from a break. 2m in arrears of the winner CHROMOZONE last start, she won’t be too far away.

SELECTIONS: SIGNORINA JUJON (6), TRACES OF TARA (1), GUY LOOKS GOOD (3), MUCHO GUAPA (2)
SUGGESTED BET: SIGNORINA JUJON (6) to win

RACE FIVE

AROONA (7) started from gate 1 last time out and was soon buried away 3 back on the poles after showing limited early hustle. Using the passing lane to grab the bronze, it was a sound effort after meeting some tougher opponents in previous outings. With the cosy trip, he can be ready to take the snipers shot.

MOONLIGHT BUTCHER (1) took on the lamp lighting duties from this gate last start. After setting a steady opening half, he tried to dial it up, but was nabbed in the stretch when 5m in arrears of victory. Fitter following 3 runs back from a break, he will give them something to chase.

GO ANNE GO (2) struck trouble in transit last start from gate 6 that ended her chances. Officially last the start prior, she was only 8m from the winner when searching for space and she is in the mix
 
MISTER FAHRENHEIT (4) found the front here last start over the sprint trip but was unable to see it out when nabbed near the wire. He can have an early look, but might be obliged to work hard.

SELECTIONS: AROONA (7), MOONLIGHT BUTCHER (1), GO ANNE GO (2), MISTER FAHRENHEIT (4)
SUGGESTED BET: AROONA (7) to win

RACE SIX

JEWELS AFFAIR (1) has been a 3-time bridesmaid in her 3 race outings, the latest when taken back from a wide gate prior to finding the line strongly to get within a head of the winner. After making a mess of the starts on debut form the 2^nd line, she has been ODM the past 2 and with the benefit of the early options, looks to get her moment to shine.

GRETELS GIRL (2) pounced on the pegs from gate 3 here 2 starts back over the 2040m trip and once in control, fought them off to score a comfortable 10m victory to open her account. The return to this grade will suit after taking on the Triad Consolation last start and she will be right in the fight.

SIR JUJON (7) started from inside the 2^nd line last start in the boys Triad Consolation when soon buried in the run and chasing in vain. With a cosy trip on offer here, he will be probing for space.

FOUR FOR FOUR (8) was shooting for a hat-trick last start in the girl Triad Final and from inside the 2^nd line was back in the pack and far from disgraced when mid-field to FOND MEMORIES. She is in the mix.

SELECTIONS: JEWELS AFFAIR (1), GRETELS GIRL (2), SIR JUJON (7), FOUR FOR FOUR (8)
SUGGESTED BET: Exotics 1-2-7-8

RACE SEVEN

BLACKJEWEL (1) started from this gate last start when securing the pocket trail prior to taking her shot via the passing lane. Falling 1.5m short of victory in claiming the silver, it had followed placings in 2 of her previous 4 starts. With the cosy trip on offer again, she can take the last shot.
 
REDDY FIRE (2) hasn’t been to the winners stall for some time, yet he might have found the right conditions to rectify that here. Doing his share of early work last start from gate 4 to get forward, he faded late over the 2040m. Back to the sprint trip looks ideal hustling to pounce on the pegs, can dictate.

LA BELLE CHEVAL (7) has placed in all 3 starts since resuming from a spell, the latest when using the passing lane to get within a half-head of the winner. Needing a slice of luck, she can chime in late.

WECANONLYHOPE (5) found the perfect conditions last start when securing the pocket trail and then making the closing shot a winner. The gate stings here, but she won’t be too far away.

RACE EIGHT

AWHOLELOTOFPRETTY (2) was 1^st up in Qld when taking on the Fillies Breeders Final last start. Starting form gate 10, she then didn’t have the smoothest run in transit when finishing at the rear of the pack. Having trialled nicely in preparation, she has the improved gate and this looks a winnable contest for her to breakthrough.

AURORA ROSE (4) settled back in the field on debut when looking to makes some closing ground wide off the track. On a 4-day back-up into the Breeders Consolation, she then wasn’t suited after striking some trouble and finishing back in the field. The triangle should suit and the little black filly can challenge.

AMANDER (6) has been kept fresh since her last start when 2^nd up in her career. A tidy 2^nd on debut when 9m from the winner FRONTLINER, it didn’t go to plan 2^nd up. Look for a sharper effort here.

HEARTBREAK (5) settled in the 1x1 trail here last start and chased home nicely to grab the silver behind BIG GEM MONTANA. Well-beaten on debut, if she can add further improvement from the latest outing, she has place claims.

SUGGESTED BET: AWHOLELOTOFPRETTY (2) to win

RACE NINE

A tough maiden to close the night where the combined stats of the field show 18 placings in 126 outings. After landing a few spots closer to the pegs than he has in recent times, ILLBEWATCHING (3) might just have found the breakthrough conditions. Fading after working in the run last start, touching down in front will be a huge bonus.

ILLUMINOSCITY (5) struck trouble last start that ended her chances after initially showing good speed off the arm. That followed an error when positioned in the running line that put her out of business. Placed her previous 3 in succession, she can look to issue some sort of challenge.

FAIREACHDAINN (4) eased into the running line from this gate last start a was making some late ground when just beyond mid-field at the finish. With a similar trip, he can chime in here.

EXHILARATING (1) will take some fitness benefit from her last start when resuming from a break. Kept fresh since that outing, she has the benefit of the good gate to fill a podium spot in this.

SELECTIONS: ILLBEWATCHING (3), ILLUMINOSCITY (5), FAIREACHDAINN (4), EXHILARATING (1)
