RACE FIVE
FORTES IN FIDE (7) broke a frustrating run of outs last start, scoring his 1st win under the guidance of his original trainer Mark Reys. Forging his way to the front from gate 2 over the 1780m, keeping an even tempo he was able to take them all the way. With some good front-line pressure, he can go back-to-back.
TARGARYEN HANOVER (1) settled in the 1x1 trail last start at Redcliffe when finishing best to claim a 3m victory. Forced to work hard in the run the start prior when holding on for the silver as a red figure fav, he can utilise his early speed here. This is a step up, but the gate works in his favour.
ELZBOY (6) didn’t receive the smoothest passage last start from gate 10 when down the line. A smart winner here 4 starts back, with a soft trip he will be probing for openings here.
DOMESTIC ART (3) is one of the most experienced Marburgers and boasts a top-3 in 20 of 39 outings, with 10 of those being victories. With early speed to find a forward position, he is in the mix.
