Caulfield Heath Race 2 - Quayclean Hcp (66)
A good contest. CONTALDO (5) has switched from a Sydney barn on a 54-day return and brings strong figures. Missed 1L two back over this trip on the Randwick Kensington ($2.6F), and that's the key form reference. Races forward and gives himself every chance. Ethan Brown is flying, and his engagement is a decent push for his chances. EN FLIQUE (9) belted the 62 graders by 4L at Wangaratta and followed with a 1L defeat at Sandown-Hillside this grade/distance. Was slow off and wide later and impressed. Winning claims if the inside barrier is managed. DESERT ANTHEM (6) just missed over a mile at Sandown-Lakeside first-up when expected to need it. Stepped up to this trip on the Hillside following working into it well to place. Will give away a start, but he has more to give and can feature if things go his way. STORM AHEAD (7) has been knocking on the door since his comfortable win at Cranbourne. The extra metres won't bother, but he has to push forward from the outside gate.
