Rat With Goldtooth is never far way in her races having missed the placings only three times in her 15 start career to date. Her last two runs at 1400m suggest to me that she is looking for a further. Although this is her first go beyond the mile, I think she can measure up in a race if this quality.
Age Of Chivalry returned to the races with an eye catching fifth at The Valley first up behind Usain Bowler. The now four year old was beaten a lip by The Inevitable at Group 3 level last prep and that horse has since come out and won very impressively first up from a spell. He is a horse that can progress to a higher level of racing than this contest and he can start now with a win here.
Whichever way you look at it she seems the one to beat. This looks a perfect race for her to kick start what could be a really good campaign. She has drawn perfectly and can settle just in behind Trap For Fools and Cliffs Edge who can set a nice tempo and her recent trials suggest she is going well enough first up to win.
I’m happy to be with Crack The Code in the last race of the day. The I Am Invincible mare was not beaten far first up down the Flemington straight and I think she is better suited around the bend. She has won two from two at Caulfield and with the 2kg claim, she should go very close in a race of this quality.
