R1 n7 SARRISMO Positive early from wide draw. 2nd up off 38 days and since won 1200m trial Randwick March 16 – he sat 3rd leaders back there and never left the fence accelerating though late to win impressively. Resumed off 91-day spell BM72 Warwick Farm led and controlled on a very slow tempo and had strong L400m figure off that winning by 1.7L. Talented Sydney dry track 4Y0 from top stable.
R2 n3 ANEMACORE Forward behind the speed. 6t up off 14 days and suited out to 1600m. Happy to forgive any horse from that Gold Coast meeting on a S7 track – it was an awful shifty surface. He was slow away sat back last 9L off leader on a crawl speed tempo and wide, then sprinted fast between 400-200m and not knocked around late off that when 7* to John Rambo beaten 5L. All prior form wins this race easily and dry track suits today. Keen he wins.
R6 n9 LOVEY DOVEY Maps back MF outside. Deeper into prep off 14 days rises 4kg and well suited out to 2200m (+150m). Last start BM78 Gold Coast S7 track drew wider was slow away sat back 9L off leader on a very slow tempo (unsuited). Ran home strongly in between runners in straight for narrow 2^° to Prince Levi who had much better run. Suited out to 2200m off a more solid tempo and better map. Ready to win today.

R5 n14 ZAKOUMA Back near last on map from draw. 3rd up off 17 days drops 4.5kg and out to 2000m (+200m). Last start BM70 Sandown drew outside sat back last 12L off leader on an even tempo and had powerful L600m figure winning easily by 2.5L. He had 6th fastest L200m of meeting there – it was an impressive win. Gear change today off that and gets W Pike out to 2000m. Proven on soft and clear top pick – he will zoom home late over the top of these.
R8 n5 BIRDMAN Back off MF on map. 4* up off 14 days and well suited out to a high pressure 2000m (+200m). Last start Group 2 Caulfield sat 3rd 3L off on an even tempo and never ever looked like losing from there winning easily by 1.8L. Race rated highly and his L200m figure off a huge L600m that tempo was excellent. Proven soft and had perfect prep for target race. Keen he runs over these late and wins.

R2 n8 JUJA KIBO Forward inside on map behind leaders. 3’d up off 14 days rises 1.5kg and well suited out to 2400m (+400m). Last start Listed Randwick drew wider sat 3rd on a brutal tempo and had to chase a loose leader mid race. Really brave late when 3rd beaten 1.5L by Campaldino. Race rated highly and his effort there was excellent. Out to 2400m off a great map for C Williams suits ideally. Very hard to beat and softer surface is ideal.
R4 n2 SKYHOOK Maps 3P back inside. Resumes off 140-day spell and two excellent trials. Won most recent 900m Rosehill March 10 by 1.4L. High quality colt from renowned first up stable and his form last prep around Tempted and co is outstanding for a race like this. Should charge late over the top here off this map and proven on soft. Keen he wins.
R6 n2 AUTUMN BOY Forward inside on leaders back. 3’d up off 14 days out to 2000m (+400m). Last start 3YO Group 1 Randwick sat 4** early in 1/1 on a brutal tempo when beaten 3.2L by Sheza Alibi who is an elite talent. That run off a brutal tempo in a high rating race sets him up perfectly out to 2000m. Gets a perfect stalking map for J Mac and is proven on soft, extremely hard to beat.
R10 n10 INKARUNA Maps 4* behind leaders. 2nd up off 14 days drops 3kg and suited out to 1200m (+100m). Resumed off 112-day spell 3YO Listed Randwick sat 3r° inside on a very slow tempo and then held up and not clear until late when narrow 2nd to Beadman who had all the favours. Clearly should have won that race and very well suited today with 54kg off a perfect map. No runs on soft but she should be winning here.
