Verdict
#6 Jedi Spurs has trialled well twice ahead of his debut. He has taken a step forward each time and has shown good gate speed, suggesting he can lead on debut and prove too classy for his rivals. #7 Quantum Wukong ran a slashing fourth on debut from the outside barrier over 1,200m and can take a step forward second-up. He draws the outside rail and maps for every chance. #4 Sharp Planet placed second on debut at this course and distance two starts ago, when he started favourite and was beaten under a length. Second-up, he drew wide stepping to 1,200m, settled back and raced wide. A run to forget. #1 Chancheng Sparkle was held up for a good part of the straight on debut before getting out late and running on into fifth. It was an encouraging effort and one he can improve on second-up.
Top Tip:
Jedi Spurs

Watch out for: Quantum Wukong (7)

Verdict
This 650-metre allowance sprint features a field competing for a USD 4,000 purse. TYSON FURY, trained by Molinelli, enters as a leading contender, while GALOPE BURLA showed promise when finishing third recently. BABY THUNDER and OJOS VERDES both possess winning experience over this track and distance, making them threats for the minor placings for trainer Barrios. BARRILETE TOM and the debutants EMBLEMATIC VU and MOONLIGHT add intrigue to a race where early speed is likely to prove decisive. Dotta’s runners also warrant respect in this wide-open contest.
Top Tip:
Tyson Fury

Watch out for: Galope Burla (7)
