Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Optional Claiming
THE TOY CANNON (6) was an effortless winner last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt), scoring by 10 lengths. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Sure to be in the finish. SCULCOS FOLLY (1) had been in top form landing two consecutive wins before a last-start second over 1106m at Laurel. Hard to fault and can atone. NEVER SAY UNCLE (5) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 9 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and he is worth including. HONG KONG PHOOEY (4) looks to launch this prep the way he ended the last three-and-a-half months ago when he scored over 1207m at this track. Can give this a shake.

Racing well recently. At the latest run scored a big 10 len win at this track January 2 over 1207m defeating Major Bourbon with 55.5kg at $2.58. The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on November 14 over 1308m, 0.3 len behind Liamster with 54kg at $3.93. Another win cannot be ruled out.

Second run back. First-up after three months ran last in a small field at this track on January 11 over 1609m, 6 len behind Bala De Plata carrying 56kg at $7.08. Previously second-up won by 4 len at this track September 14 over 1207m defeating Bod Beach with 54kg at $3.89. Likely improver.
