Canberra Race 4 - Epa Developing Australian Para Equestrians Mdn Plate
Archibald-trained MARCHON (5) was slow off in an Open 2 at Rosehill on debut and was immediately tipped out. Just missed in a metro trial before and solid enough effort over 1300m Warwick Farm first-up. Was bet $3.5 and will be tough to beat in this grade with the extra fitness. WAVE DANCER (11) didn't have the best of it finding a place over 1400m here three weeks ago. She's also in a leading Sydney stable and is sure to keep improving. Stablemate STRIKE A POSE (7) finished a touch behind the above in the same race when better supported. Positioned forward and he's also lightly raced with plenty of scope for improvement. HELIGAN (3) is third-up and still well shy of his best. He raced a $3 favourite on a heavy track at Nowra 12-days ago and look for him to be finishing hard.

Dual acceptor. Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign when last of 8 at Grafton Mdn November 21 over 1700m, on rain affected going; 23 len behind Taravia with 59kg at $9. When resuming last campaign ran last of 8 at Newcastle Cg&E Mdn October 18 over 1250m, 8 len behind Zoucratic with 58.5kg at $26. Might be better off following this outing.

Most recently from last on the turn 8th of 11 at Wyong Mdn on March 28 over 1350m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Wishful Thinker carrying 55kg at $91. The start before that 6th of 9 at Hawkesbury 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on March 17 over 1500m, 6 len behind The Iron Star carrying 59kg at $21. Not keen on his chances.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 10 at Albury Ctry Mdn-Sw on March 19 over 1000m, slow going 5 len behind Flower Fairy with 58.5kg at $12. Second run from a spell 3rd of 7 at Nowra Ctry Mdn-Sw on April 5 over 1200m, on heavy track; 3.5 len behind Stern Reminder carrying 58.5kg at $3. Shows promise. Up in trip and is worth thought.

Second-up. First start eased back early on 5th of 7 at Rosehill 2yo Hcp on July 5 over 1100m, slow going 5.5 len behind Raging Force with 56kg at $6. Returned from break 4th of 10 at Warwick Farm Super 3yo Mdn-Sw on April 1 over 1300m, slow going 4.5 len behind Mr Miller carrying 54kg at $3.50. Rates highly and is the one to beat.
