Bunbury Race 6 - Wittens Irrigation & Design South West Cup (L)
The feature of the day and LET'S GALAHVANT (2) goes on top. He saluted impressively at his first time over 2000m last start and the rise to 2200m doesn't appear to be an issue. He may be back in the run, but he won't be too far off the leader with a small field. Just needs to hold his form to be winning again. MAROCCHINO (1) will lead the field and looks to get his own way out in front being the only notable leader. He's as tough as old boots and was tough to get past in the Strickland last time out. Can dictate the speed and get back to winning ways. ADMIRATION EXPRESS (4) showed that she may be back in form last start following a few niggling issues over the past year. Out to this trip now looks ideal and she brings some different form into the mix. She can race her way into the money. BE OPTIMISTIC (5) will appreciate the extra furlong and is not to be discounted.

Group 2 winner. Useful type. At the latest run 4th of 7 at Belmont Park in the G3 Strickland on June 15 over 2000m, on a slow track; 1.3 len behind Let's Galahvant carrying 59kg at $6. Before that led to the turn then faded 6th of 15 at Belmont Park in the G3 Hyperion on June 1 over 1600m, slow going 3 len behind Magnificent Andy carrying 59kg at $21. Wasn't too far off the mark last time and will take plenty of catching from out in front.

Group 3 winner. Recent form sound. At the latest run ran on from midfield and won by a neck at Belmont Park G3 Strickland June 15 over 2000m on a rain affected track defeating Western Empire carrying 59kg at $10. The run before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 15 at Belmont Park in the G3 Hyperion on June 1 over 1600m, on a slow track; head behind Magnificent Andy with 59kg at $51. The trip doesn't seem an issue from what we saw last start. Can go back-to-back.

Useful gelding. At the latest run 9th of 11 at Belmont Park Rtg 71+ on June 22 over 1600m, slow going 5 len behind Sentimental Hero with 58kg at $61. The race before that 8th of 11 at Belmont Park Rtg 72+ on June 8 over 1400m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Rope Them In carrying 58kg at $81. Needs to improve on what we've seen recently.

Group 3 winner. Useful type. At the latest run held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at Belmont Park Rtg 78+ on June 15 over 1650m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Oly's Choice carrying 57.5kg at $19. The run before that second last of 8 at Belmont Park Rtg 78+ on June 1 over 1400m, slow going 3.5 len behind Demolish with 58kg at $26. Getting out to a more suitable trip for her now and that can see her improve sharply.

Group 2 placegetter. Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming 5th of 15 at Morphettville in the G3 Cummings on May 11 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind En Francais with 54.5kg at $21. Second-up from last on the turn 5th of 7 at Belmont Park in the G3 Strickland on June 15 over 2000m, on a slow track; 2 len behind Let's Galahvant carrying 57kg at $13. Not without a chance but needs a couple things to go his way.
