PHILIP WOO’S FORMLINE

Double Bingo ran on nicely for fourth for his new trainer two runs ago over the dirt 1,200m before getting pipped late by Family Fortune after a speed-tracking run last Wednesday when trying the Valley 1,650m. He should map well and can go one better. Soaring Bronco must offset a wider draw but is one-from-one for his new trainer following a dead-heat success from midfield last start over the Valley 1,650m. Verbier quickened nicely to win three runs ago over the Valley 1,200m and does come into this off a speed-chasing third over the dirt 1,650m. He has proven C&D form and Joao Moreira should give him every chance from gate two. Telecom Power has stayed on well for placings back-to-back and a fifth from three straight runs when trying the Valley 1,650m before making ground late for seventh from a wide draw when trying the dirt 1,650m. He cannot be ignored despite gate 10.

TROUBLE IN RUNNING

LUCKY BLESSING (K073) rider stated that he had to make use of his mount in the early stages to go forward, particularly when caught wide in the early stages. He said as a result his mount was left without a finishing effort in the Home Straight. After the race was examined by the vet who said an endoscopic exam showed a substantial amount of mucus in the horse's trachea - Race 526.

SOARING BRONCO (J162) near the 350M made contact with a runner and was steadied when disappointed for clear running. Afterwards had difficulty obtaining clear running until near the 200M - Race 526.

NOBLE FANS (K038) bumped at the start. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 575.

PODIUM (H173) jumped only fairly. From a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages - Race 585.

VERBIER (J187) rider explained that his instructions were to be in a forward position, stepping up in distance in the event and when caught wide in the early stages he elected to go forward and take up a position outside the leader - Race 566.

DOUBLE SHOW (G250) jumped only fairly, shifted in and made contact with a runner - Race 554.

ATOMIC BEAUTY (H066) bumped on jumping - Race 515.

SMILING EMPEROR (J371) jumped only fairly and shortly after the start was steadied when crowded. Near the 1100M was steadied - Race 554.

CASA LEGEND (G126) jumped only fairly. Between the 400M and the 200M was held up for clear running - Race 596.

ORIENTAL SURPRISE (K028) from a wide barrier was shifted across behind runners in the early stages - Race 605.

TRACKWORK HIGHLIGHT

Soaring Bronco ran on strongly late for a close third in a recent dirt trial.
