Our Black Book: Horse You Must Follow From Flemington 11/3

Our form analyst has looked over the replays & sectional times from Flemington on Saturday and has placed his list of horses you must follow below.

WHAT YOU NEED

Mick Price and Michael Kent Junior have an outstanding prospect in What You Need who toyed with his rivals to win the 1100m Sprint at Flemington for three-year-olds. Having only his second start he won eased up by three and a quarter lengths. On a day where there were some superb sprinters running, he recorded the fastest last 400m for the meeting of 22.02 seconds.

EL PATRONESS

Another good run at her second run back from a long spell after she won the ATC Oaks last year. She held on strongly for fourth in a fast run 1600 metres event won by Sirileo Miss. They ran almost 2.5 second faster than Revolutionary Miss. Next start over 2000 metres she should go close.

THE ASTROLOGIST

Brave run by this under-rated sprinter to finish sixth in the Newmarket after he led up the outside division. He held on strongly and held on nicely to finish sixth behind five top liners. Hard to fathom he was over looked for the Quokka but he’ll take beating in Dubai in the Al Quoz Sprint.

JUST FOLK

The pride of Bendigo is in for another great campaign. Racing on a firm track which isn’t his preferred surface he resumed with a fourth behind the in-form Scallopini over 1400m in the Shaftesbury Avenue where he race just off the speed and then finished off well. If he heads to Sydney and gets a wet track watch out.

IS IT ME/JENNY JEROME

Either could have won the final race bar for back luck. Is It Me began awkwardly then raced mid-field on the inside. As a result he was held for a run between the 450m and the 200m mark but when he got into the clear he surged to the line to finish second. In the same race Jenny Jerome who finished 12th was held up for the entire straight.
