Ladbrokes Geelong Race 2

Christmas Party Raceday Friday 11th December Mdn Plate

Prize Money: $65,000

VOLTRIX (10) went forward last time and battled on gamely to finish just a head from the winner in second over 1200m at Pakenham. Also narrowly beaten at only start prior and gets blinkers here. CELESTIAL BLUE (2) was prominent at the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1000m at Pakenham, beaten 2 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. RESONANT (5) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at Pakenham but raced below expectations last time over 1000m at Bendigo, finishing sixth and beaten 1.5 lengths. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can win if at his best. SUPERWILL (8) will find this much more suitable than the two runs to date and has been gelded since. Big improver. TIZ THE TYCOON (9) is one of a number of first-starters who have trialled well and has drawn the best of them, so warrants respect.

Gelding by Dirty Work facing the starter for the first time. Runner-up in a Wangaratta jump-out on November 5. Has had three jumpouts this time in, winning the middle one, which was a good pointer to a strong showing.

Comments

Second-up. Promising on debut ran on from midfield; 2nd of 11 in a 2yo Mdn-Sw at this track on June 19 over 1125m, on heavy track; nose behind Fast Freddie carrying 58kg at $7. Went for a break before returning made ground from midfield; 3rd of 11 in a Mdn-Sw at Pakenham on October 30 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Capital Charlie with 57kg at $3.40. Done little wrong in the career to date so should be in the firing line again.

Colt by Tagaloa facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on November 9 at Cranbourne when finished fourth. In good hands but keen to see off what he's produced at the jumpouts.

Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily ran second last of 7 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Bendigo on October 28 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Running Rich with 58kg at $3.30. Classy type who gets his chance to break through.

Gelding by Soul Patch facing the starter for the first time. Won a jump-out at Cranbourne on November 2. Three jumpouts this time in, last two at 1000m, suggest a strong debut is on the cards.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation ran last of 7 in a 2yo Final at Flemington on July 4 over 1200m, slow going 8 len behind Stars Of Dom with 55.5kg at $19. First up last campaign ran second last of 8 in the LR Festival Of Racing Stakes at Flemington on February 28 over 1000m, 8 len behind Gin Twist with 57kg at $26. Was runner-up in a jump-out at Flemington on October 23. Tested in two tougher races than this to date, after which he's been gelded, so improvement would not shock.

Blinkers FIRST TIME [Blinkers]

Comments

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 in a Mdn-Sw at this track on September 23 over 1125m, nose behind Avery Anna carrying 57kg at $2.30. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 in a 3yo Mdn-Sw at Pakenham on October 30 over 1200m, on a slow track; head behind Lomu carrying 58kg at $3.50. Narrowly beaten at only two runs to date and gets blinkers, which looks a good recipe.
