Comments in running

Kalahari Gold tracked leaders, driven along 3f out, stayong on when carried left and bumped over 1f out, soon recovered and stayed on well to lead final 50yds, readily

Credit Swap chased leaders, led 1f out when leader veered left, soon ridden, headed and outpaced final 50yds

Theory led, ridden and veered badly left over 1f out, not recovered and soon beaten

Strategic Mover in touch, ridden and staying on when pushed left over 2f out, switched right over 1f out and stayed on same pace

Papillio pressed leader, ridden over 2f out, weakened approaching final furlong

Holden Eagle in rear, shaken up over 2f out, some progress from over 1f out, never in contention

Diego Rivera took keen hold, chased leaders, ridden and hung left over 2f out, soon beaten

Sydneysider slowly into stride, recovered into mid-division 3f out, soon ridden, weakened over 2f out

Persian Flyer always behind

Cape Roberto slowly away, recovered into mid-division 4f out, soon ridden and weakened




Analyis of the race

This second division of the 7f maiden was won in a time over a second quicker than the first won by Main Aim (due mainly to more early pace) and it again went to a newcomer, who is probably above average in the shape of KALAHARI GOLD. He was done no favours when Theory hung across him going to the last furlong but he then showed a nice turn of foot to quicken up and readily settle matters. Once again the handicapper will be the deciding factor where he goes next but it will be a surprise if he does not go on to better things.

Theory will be up for a mark now and she may have been a bit closer but for hanging markedly. Maybe she was feeling the ground a bit.

Strategic Mover has a rating of 85 already so those who have finished in front are not going to be given too much leeway.
