Summary Of Our Trainers’ Tips For Today’s Racing (Sat, 18th Feb)

From Chris Waller

Horse: Hursley
Message: (Saturday, Flemington Race 7, Ascot Racecourse Trophy) Should have won last start. Has trained on well, and the 2000m at a big track like Flemington will suit.

Horse: Counterattack
Message: (Saturday, Flemington Race 8, Lightning Stakes) Good horse, though he hasn’t won a Group 1 yet. The 1200m Newmarket Handicap will suit him better than the Lightning, but the horse has come back in good shape.

Horse: Torgensen
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 2, Happy 80th Birthday Stan King Hcp) Apprentice will claim 3kg. Trialled well on Tuesday.

Horse: Strawberry Boy
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 3, James Ruse Hcp) Will claim 3kg to offset the big weight. 1500m will suit.

Horse: Antonio Giuseppe
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 3, James Ruse Hcp) Resuming after a very good last preparation. He has come back really good, nice & strong. The distance is a big query.

Horse: Kinema
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 3, James Ruse Hcp) Last start winner on Melbourne Cup day. Not as sharp as his other stablemates, hopefully he can run past a few in the straight.

Horse: Veladero
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 6, Hobartville Stakes) Has been working well, absolutely flying. He ran 4th in his 1st up run over 1200m, the distance on Saturday will suit better. He’s bang on target for his future assignments.

Horse: Comin’ Through
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 6, Hobartville Stakes) Was a good run 1st up and he’ll take a lot of benefits from that race. Will improve over a little bit further. He’ll run well and his class will take him a long way.

Horse: French Emotion
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 7, Millie Fox Stakes) A bit disappointing 1st up. Her work has been well since. She has drawn ok, and back to her home track will help.

Horse: Tsaritsa
Message: (Saturday, Rosehill Race 7, Millie Fox Stakes) Very good 1st up run, made good ground late. She’s a horse that had a few issues with her breathing but time has settle everything down and she seems good now. She has come back in good shape and ready to improve on her last preparation.
