Ebhaar was an impressive winner on debut, and I am confident that she can keep alive her unbeaten career start when she resumes in the Widden Stakes this afternoon.
The I Am Invincible filly was an impressive trial winner prior to debuting and put the writing on the wall with an eye-catching win at Listed level in November.
She has again trialled well in the lead-up to this race and with even luck, she’ll take a power of beating.
Military Exprt is another resuming galloper with serious claims on winning at Rosehill today.
The Redoute’s Choice colt was a strong and consistent performer throughout his debut preparation, and ended his prep with consecutive placings at Group 3 level.
He’s had the benefit of a couple of trials leading up to his return and he’ll relish the drop in class.
This is one of the more open races on today’s program at The Valley, and I think that a horse like Austrata can have an impact at a generous price in the Australia Stakes.
Austrata hasn’t been seen at the races since September, but he did return some competitive efforts last time in, and finished third behind Mr Brightside at Sandown most notably.
He has won at this point of his preparation previously, he returned a sharp piece of work here earlier in the week and I like that Chris Waller is launching his campaign over a mile.
This is a drop in class for Profit, and I think that he looks well placed to strike third-up.
The Dundeel gelding has been a strong and consistent performer for the Chris Anderson yard since debuting, and he resumed this time with a typically good effort to finish third, beaten a length and a half in the Lough Neagh Stakes.
He didn’t fire a shot in the Magic Millions Cup last time, but getting out to his pet trip with improvement today should prove ideal.
