Eagle Farm Race 8 - U&U Recruitment Hcp
BENZOU (2) has a handy record around this circuit with a win and a second from just three outings and will get a soft run in transit from the inside alley. This is the easiest task he's been set for a while and can play a major role in the finish. KIWI SPIRIT (5) has won two of three this preparation with Guthmann-Chester being on board for both victories. Racing with a lot of confidence now and can continue the purple patch of form. LEAD ME ON (1) hasn't been too far away in richer contests of late and should find this assignment a touch easier. Include with the 3kg claim. The well-related TEN GOOD REASONS (9) (half to G2 winner and 2xG1 placed Osipenko) got the maiden win out of the way last time out and can go right on with the job now.
