Innisfail Race 4 - Raine & Horne Innisfail Hcp

MR METRICS (4) is a six-year-old gelding who is having his first run for the Joe Russo stable. Finished off last campaign with a tenth at Moruya ten weeks ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Leading prospect. BAKERSFIELD (3) scored two runs back then was well supported last time but could only manage to finish sixth over the same trip at Cairns. Has the talent to take care of this field. IMPARDOO (7) finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 950m at Cairns when first up from a spell. Steps up in distance today and rates a strong top-three chance. STRATEGIST (6) built on a nice third two starts back at Atherton with a win over 1000m there a week ago, getting home by a nose. Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success.

Second run back. First-up after five months second last in a small field at Cairns Hcp on December 3 over 950m, slow going 6 len behind Jemeldi with 55kg at $26. Previously second-up got back early 3rd in a small field at Townsville Hcp on March 5 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Demon Award carrying 54kg at $4.50. Fitter again but prefer to see a return to form.

Most recently 3rd in a small field at Cairns Hcp on December 3 over 950m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Jemeldi with 54kg at $61. The run before that second last of 7 at Cairns Bm70 on November 22 over 1250m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind Rough Cut Jewel with 59.5kg at $41. Will need further improvement to trouble these.

Most recently ran last in a small field at Cairns Hcp on December 3 over 950m, slow going 8 len behind Jemeldi carrying 55kg at $3.50. The race before that won by 1.2 len at Cairns Hcp November 22 over 950m in soft going defeating Bold Type carrying 55kg at $4.50. Prepared to overlook that last run; expecting sharp improvement.

The race before that 3rd in a small field at Atherton Bm60 on November 23 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2.75 len behind Bloomin' Ripper carrying 62kg at $5. Will prove hard to beat.

Second run back. First-up after three months 4th in a small field at Cairns Bm65 on December 3 over 950m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Fodor with 59kg at $4. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Atherton Bm55 June 15 over 1000m defeating Pomade carrying 59.5kg at $10. Rates highly and expected to do much better with that run under his belt.
