Our Black Book: Horses You Must Follow From Flemington 9/11

Our analyst has looked over the times & replays from Saturday’s Flemington meeting and has found five horses that you must follow next start.

STAR VEGA

He’s a Mr Dependable as he puts in every time he goes to the races and now Anthony and Sam Freedman have got him out to a staying trip he might win a nice race. He was very good in the slowly run Queen Elizabeth Stakes on Saturday coming from off speed and looked a winning chance but couldn’t overhaul Smokin’ Romans who had a picnic in front. He also ran 12 metres further than the winner.


NADAL

The race didn’t pan out for him as he got held up at a crucial stage at the 400m mark. He then flew home to finish fourth with his last 200m of 11.60 seconds the second fastest for the meeting. Interestingly Rey Magneiro’s winning time of 1.09.26 min for the 1200m was only .01 seconds slower than Sunshine In Paris winning time in the Sprint Championship so it should prove to be a strong form reference.


RIGHT TO PARTY

Straight track specialist who proved she could mix it with the top sprinters when she was just beaten in the VRC Sprint Championship. She had to make her run from the middle of the track on the inside of the other runners and she looked likely to win until J. Mac burst through on the winner. Right To Party didn’t get her A One spot on the outside. She will be hard to beat in the Black Caviar and the Newmarket next year.


FUTURE HISTORY

Brave effort to finish fourth in the VRC Champions Stakes behind Via Sistina in what was a career best effort for him. He looked a place chance with 200m to go but no disgrace to finish behind Via Sistina, Atishu and Without A Fight and beat home several accomplished horses. He will be a threat in the Zipping Classic.


KIKO

She was the subject of some support on Saturday and if she had of had any luck the punters who backed her would have won. RV stewards noted she was held up from the 400m to the 150m mark. When she got into the clear she didn’t have a lot of galloping room and still surged to finish fourth beaten only 1.45 lengths. Stick with her down the straight.
