Caulfield Race 2 - Henley Homes Merson Cooper Stakes (L)
Always tricky with so little race day form to work with. TYCOON STAR (1) is the lone runner we have seen under race conditions and we had to like what we saw. Won nicely and that experience can prove so important. Plenty of jump out winners and horses with big profiles lining up as dangers. POINT BARROW (8) looked about as natural as any of them and is feared for strong connections. ROSANGELA (9) might get further than this but looked a likely type jumping out sweetly at home. PALM ANGEL (7) has had a great grounding winning three jump outs.

Off the mark on debut; came from midfield and won by 1.0 len at Flemington G3 Maribyrnong Plt November 5 over 1000m defeating Bacash with 58kg at $17. Will take a lot from that run and is sure to play a big role.
