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.
BUTCH CASSIDY
Slow to begin and then got caught in an awkward spot when held up for a run between the 500m and the 250m. When he got into clear galloping room he recorded some quick closing sectionals with his last 200m of 11.50 seconds the third fastest for the meeting. The two-year-old colt by Written Tycoon was also strong after the line.
SPARKLE
Good run at her second Australian start from this Japanese bred mare who is now trained by Danny O’Brien. She raced on the speed and was only outsprinted by two in-form and fit horses in the talented pair of Munhamek and Kettle Hill. She’ll also appreciate further than 1600m.
BENEDETTA
The win of the day. Jason Warren can find a top class sprinter and he has again with this filly. She recorded a time of 1.09.24 min which was over a second faster than Sessions Road in a Benchmark 90 later on in the day.
VIRTUOUS CIRCLE
Slow to begin and was never really a winning chance but when he got into the clear he rocketed home to finish eighth only 2.6 lengths from the winner Legarto in the Australian Guineas. He’s a top draw colt and when he gets out to 2000 metres he can capture a Group 1 win event.
