Caulfield Race 8 - Evergreen Turf Regal Roller Stakes (L)

Open race but the best of ARKANSAW KID (1) would make him the hardest to beat. First up he was solid leading at a good clip in the G3 Aurie's Star giving away weight but this is his best track and trip and with a bit of improvement he looks a strong hop. NDOLA (4) was well backed in the Aurie's Star and ran fourth, he'll settle back and look to rip home with his turn of foot. RECOMMENDATION (7) hasn't won in a long time but is racing well, placing in the G3 Bletchingly behind Cosmic Crusader here last time, albeit he was beaten four lengths. Gets Shinn on and drops in weight here, he'll take catching. MCGAW (10) resumes. He didn't fire in one run last time in but his best, a G2 winner over Tentyris, reads well if he can find it fresh. ASAKURA (11) resumes. He went through the grades nicely last time in and ended up running fourth to star NZ filly Well Written before a break which is outstanding form.

Second run back. First-up after four months led but faded 3rd of 8 in the G3 Aurie's Star Handicap at Flemington on August 1 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Boomtown Boss carrying 59kg at $4.80. Previously second-up 3rd of 14 at Pakenham on December 13 over 1400m, 0.6 len behind Warnie with 59kg at $10. Solid return and best form reads well for this.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation eighth of 18 at Eagle Farm in the G1 Stradbroke June 13 over 1400m, on heavy track; 4 len behind Spicy Martini carrying 53.5kg at $26. First up last campaign third of 10 at Eagle Farm in the G2 Victory Stakes May 2 over 1200m, in the wet; 1.75 len behind Splash Back carrying 58.5kg at $6.50. Talented but 1200m off a break is a little niggle.

Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 9 in the G3 Bletchingly Stakes at this track on July 25 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Cosmic Crusader with 58.5kg at $6.50. The run before that ran second last of 11 in the G2 Moreton Cup at Eagle Farm on June 6 over 1200m, 5 len behind Uncommon James with 56kg at $13. Okay latest but prefer at 1400m and needs to improve.

Has won previously first-up and resumes here after a break of four-and-a-half months. Finished off last preparation eighth of 15 at this track in the G3 Vic Hcp April 4 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Hughes with 54.5kg at $4.20. Previous preparation first-up favourite; won by 1.5 len Flemington Bm78 September 13 over 1100m defeating Tonkin with 57kg at $51. Talented but gets back and will give some good ones a start.
