PHILIP WOO’S FORMLINE
Pope Cody was able to add to a solid campaign last season with an instant Valley 1,650m success after taking off 800m out following a wide trip from behind midfield. There was plenty of merit in that win and he can score again from a better draw despite a 6lb penalty. Dazzling Fit flashed potential in his first campaign, including a win over 1,600m, before returning off a long break with a second to rival Pope Cody from better than midfield at his initial Valley 1,650m run. He reopposes 6lb better off the weights for a half-length defeat. Flying Fortune followed a third and fourth following a switch to the Valley 1,650m with a win in June before returning a ground-covering seventh up in grade over 1,800m. He steps back to a mile and has drawn well in one. Do You Just retries the Valley 1,650m but did come right for a speed-tracking win and closing third over the Valley from his final four starts last term and comes into this off a nice course trial win over 1,700m. Gate four should help.
TROUBLE IN RUNNING
POPE CODY (K313) raced wide and without cover from the 800M - Race 034.
DO YOU JUST (L094) shifted in shortly after the start and made contact with a runner when being corrected by its rider. After travelling a short distance was steadied when taken in - Race 846.
CALL ME TOPSEED (K357) jumped awkwardly and then was steadied when crowded - Race 034.
LEGEND WINNER (L032) rider stated that his mount jumped awkwardly and shifted out, resulting in him becoming unbalanced and the horse losing ground. He said throughout the early and middle stages his mount did not travel well and he was obliged to ride his mount along to endeavour to maintain its position. He said when his mount did not respond to his riding and when not in a competitive position near the 500M he desisted from continuing to ride it out. After the race was examined by the vet who found that horse to be lame in its right front leg. Finished tailed out and performance was considered unacceptable. Has since performed to the satisfaction of the Stewards in a barrier trial and passed an official vet exam - Race 804.
RISING PHOENIX (J498) was slow to begin. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 028.
URANUS STAR (K511) bumped heavily at the start. Approaching the 300M was bumped - Race 794.
REFUSETOBEENGLISH (K362) jumped only fairly and shortly after was steadied. For some distance near the 200M raced tight. Over the final 150M was held up for clear running when disappointed. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 034.
WIN METHOD (K406) shifted out shortly after the start and made contact with a runner. Rider could offer no excuse for the horse's disappointing performance. Post-race vet inspection did not show any significant findings - Race 711.
VIOLET STAR (L149) rider reported that his mount jumped only fairly but then blundered shortly after the start when it was crowded - Race 054.
