Moonee Valley Race 5 - Josh Freake’s Bucks (Bm70)
MYTEMPTATION (8) is undefeated from two starts to date, winning well as favourite on debut at Bairnsdale before measuring up strongly in a BM64 at Caulfield Heath over this distance last time. Up in grade again but he can measure up strongly. THAILESS (11) broke through for a smart win at Caulfield Heath last time out, scoring by 1.3 lengths. She gets in light after the claim and draws well. Can win again. JAZZCLUB (12) resumes having shown ability as a two-year-old over the Winter. He won easily on debut at Seymour which saw him start an even money favourite in town next time out. Wary. COLSRIDGE (4) is going okay and should be at peak fitness now. He can get into the finish. ALONG THE RIVER (1) has claims.
