EAGLE FARM Race 1: (10:59AM AEST)
Race Starts in: Race Finished
No. 1 Navy Pilot
Navy Pilot makes the trip from Warwick Farm and he’s sure to find this easier than what he’s previously contested.
The son of I Am Invincible has had the two race starts and there’s been plenty of merit in both performances.
On debut over 1000m on the Kensington, he settled back at the tail off the outside gate and powered home to finish a close fifth.
Thrown in the deep end to contest the Group One Sires Produce Stakes at his following outing, he looked to be travelling well in a midfield position and tried hard in the straight and didn’t have a lot of room over the final part.
He strips fitter and looks beautifully placed at his second attempt at 1400m.
RANDWICK Race 3: (12:40pm AEST)
Race Starts in: Race Finished
No. 1 Swiftfalcon
Swiftfalcon was doing his best work late last start over the mile in the Carbine Club Stakes, and he’ll relish getting back out to this trip in the Frank Packer Plate.
Prepared by team Hawkes, the son of Exceedance has continued to perform well at a high level and was placed in both the Randwick Guineas and Rosehill Guineas prior to his latest outing.
He gets in very well under the set weight conditions, he loves it here at Randwick and gate seven will allow him to settle back in the field with plenty of room, and he’s sure to be powering home late.
RANDWICK Race 4: (1:15pm AEST)

No. 2 Zeitung
Zeitung didn’t have the best of luck last time in the P J Bell, but she’s well suited here out to 1400m and looks ready to peak at her third run back.
Held up in the early part of the straight, she didn’t have the clearest passage through but still worked home strongly to finish on the heels of the placegetters.
The Godolphin filly has shown good improvement with each preparation, and she recorded her first stakes win in the Spring when taking out The Vanity.
She has performed very well at both runs over the 1400m and with clear air, she’ll be right in the thick of things late.
EAGLE FARM Race 5: (1:23PM AEST)
Race Starts in: Race Finished
No. 1 Depth of Character
Depth of Character has been racing well and drops back sharply in grade.
Prepared by Annabel Neasham and Rob Archibald, the Deep Field gelding didn’t have the best of luck when finishing runner up at Warwick Farm three runs back, he then contested the Randwick Guineas where he blew the start and was strong to the line to finish a very credible fifth.
With a month between runs, he stepped out in the Carbine Club Stakes and he was again strong through the line to finish third behind a class pair.
He’s sure to find this easier and whilst does have to carry the big weight, he’s set to enjoy a soft run from the inside draw.
Ryan Maloney will do the steering and I think he’ll prove too good for them.
