Caulfield Heath Race 2 - Mrc Foundation Gala May 8 Mdn Plate
SCORPION (5) ran a solid race on debut at Geelong over 1443m, tracking the speed and sticking on well for a narrow fourth. Better for that and is bred to relish this rise in trip. Sets up well here and should go close. SHOW OF GOLD (2) is going well, run down late at Mornington last time when well supported in betting. Should be rock hard fit and take catching. WRITTEN STORY (9) has placed in her past couple, beaten under a length at Cranbourne last time. Can figure. CORAL IMPACT (3) was good fresh and has claims.

Second-up. First-up after three months made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 11 at Mornington 3yo Mdn-Sw on April 6 over 1500m, 2.25 len behind Steadfast with 58kg at $31. Previously second-up 2nd of 7 at Hanging Rock Mdn-Sw on January 1 over 1800m, 1.3 len behind Sergeant Mavers carrying 58kg at $10. Solid chance.

Gelding by Vino Rosso facing the starter for the first time. Fitter for a jump-out on April 7 at Cranbourne when finished fourth. Betting best guide.

Second-up. First-up after five months tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 9 at Cranbourne F&M Mdn-Sw on March 21 over 1400m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Lady Brightside with 56.5kg at $61. Previously second-up ran last of 11 at Mornington Mdn-Sw on October 25 over 1500m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Shockstar with 57.5kg at $26. Resumed with a game effort and can be in the mix here.
