Caulfield Heath Race 4 - Sportsbet Up & Coming Stars Series - Heat 4 Mdn Plate
The upside of SANTANA (9) appeals. He's a lightly raced gelding who just found one better first up here, working home well behind the handy Melian to grab second. Fancy he'll get further than 1200m in time but he'll be fitter and take a power of holding out. TEN WARRIORS (5) just cannot find the post first, again placing last time at Sandown Hillside, his 10th minor placing in 14 starts. He'd be just about a sure thing in a country maiden but has winning claims again here. GALACTIC FORCE (7) resumed over 1012m on wet ground at Sale and worked home fairly with improvement to come. Each-way. LADY LONSDALE (12) didn't quite fire in two runs last time in but has ability and can do better this time around. DAMA ROYALE (11) has placed in all four runs to date and should be right there again.

At the latest run sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 10 at Sandown-Hillside Mdn-Sw on March 11 over 1300m, long-neck behind Dirty Look carrying 59.5kg at $2.90. The run before that 5th of 10 at Pakenham Cl3 on February 26 over 1400m, 2 len behind Plunger carrying 56kg at $7.50. Frustrating but he keeps racing well and has to be respected.

Is first-up after a break of four-and-a-half months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation seventh of 14 at Warrnambool Mdn-Sw October 30 over 1200m, 2.75 len behind Star Compass carrying 55kg at $5. When resuming last campaign ninth of 12 at Sandown-Hillside 3yo Mdn-Sw September 24 over 1300m, 3.5 len behind Obucci with 56kg at $6.50. This is an ideal race to kick off. Didn't fire last time in but she's got ability and can run well.
