Black Book: Horses You Must Back Next Start From Warwick Farm 18/2

The replays and sectional times have been analysed from Wednesday’s Warwick Farm meeting. Our analyst has black booked a runner up coming out of a hot race and an Archibald runner that worked home well in inferior ground.

Lancelot Du Lac

Take nothing away from impressive winner Decorum. He will deservedly head towards races like the Randwick and Rosehill Guineas but I feel the money to make will come from following runner up Lancelot Du Lac. He found the lead and relaxed a lot better with the crossover noseband replacing the blinkers before giving a decent kick at the top of the straight. Decorum wore him down to win by 0.5L with a massive 4.1L win back to 3rd. It will be great to see the Waterhouse/Bott 3yo lob in BM company whether it be in midweek of Saturday company.

Autumn Dream

The Archibald mare is one to be following 2nd up after settling at the rear and being forced to take an inside run on the turn and doing her best work along the inside where most jockeys had avoided throughout the day. She hit the front just before the post only to be grabbed by Profoundly late to finish 0.8L 2nd. They ran 0.23s quicker than the boys earlier earlier in the day. It was a great effort over 1400m 1st up and she will no doubt come on off it.
