The replays and sectional times have been assessed from Wednesday’s Warwick Farm meeting. Our analyst has Black Booked a Pride gelding that looks set to peak 3rd up over 2000m and an impressive winner from the Les Bridge yard.

The Joe Pride grey has been frustrating for followers with only 2 wins from 20 starts with many eye-catchers amongst them but his 0.7L 2nd to Hovalnd over a mile at Warwick Farm is the best we’ve seen from him this early in his prep. He settled midfield and worked into it nicely at the top of the straight before Hovland showed more zip putting a quick length on him. I like the way he worked right to the line and would love to see him in a 1800-2000m race at the midweeks.

I want to continue to be with the Les Bridge mare moving forward after her terrific 0.6L win 2nd up off a long break. She settled off midfield and still had a ton of work to do on the point of the turn where she was 2nd last and forced to push The Replicant clear for clear running. She let down strongly and can settle closer from a better gate in the future.
