Aqueduct Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Optional Claiming
GULFY (3) was never in contention when 25 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1811m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. WHERE'S YOUR BOOM (6) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when he was handy all the way. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. NEIGH BABY (8) resumes from a spell of four months. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. SWISS ARMY KNIFE (2) closed last prep three-and-a-half months ago when he finished fourth over 1609m at this track. One of the key contenders.

The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at this track on November 23 over 1609m, 2 len behind Enforced Agenda with 54kg at $11.11. Can make amends.

Had two starts to date. At very long odds at debut, settled back and ran on when 5th of 10 at this track on November 22 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Wamo carrying 54kg at $69.70. Last start led but faded 3rd of 7 at this track on December 10 over 1207m, 4 len behind Game For It carrying 54kg at $5.61. Can't recommend against this lot.
