Flemington Race 1 - Tab We're On Hcp
Keen to see OBSERVER (2) tackle some stronger opposition off the back of a dominant five length victory at Sandown Lakeside last time out. Controlled the race there and walked in, running fast time in the process. Looks Group class and it's been no surprise to see him into the red early. BELLA PIETRA (10) appreciated the rise to this trip at Pakenham when running out an easy three length victor. Stays right down in the weights after the claim and can measure up. MILLENNIUM BLADE (3) has been good in two runs to date, sticking on well over 1200m at Caulfield last time. Should have no issues up in trip again and has claims. BUCCLEUCH (4) was sent for an easy kill at Echuca last time and did so at the prohibitive $1.14 quote. The run behind Highvol prior is good form. IMPENDING WAR (1) has won both starts to date and is hard to knock.

Yet to taste defeat in two starts. When well in the market on debut, favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2 len at Wodonga 2yo Hcp May 24 over 1200m on a rain affected track defeating Brenlyn's Legacy with 58kg at $1.85. Last start favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 0.5 len at Swan Hill Vg_Elvstroem June 6 over 1300m defeating Miss Ellaneous carrying 57kg at $2.20. Going well, this is a good test.

Racing well recently. Most recently favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.75 len at Echuca Mdn-Sw June 3 over 1412m on a soft track defeating Savvie Blanc with 57kg at $1.14.

Resumes from a spell. Finished off last preparation 13th of 15 at this track in the G2 Vrc Sires' March 8 over 1400m, 10 len behind Vinrock carrying 57kg at $17. On debut second of 10 at Sandown-Lakeside 2yo Mdn-Sw February 5 over 1200m, a nose behind Tom with 58kg at $6. Possible improver.

Had two starts to date. At long odds at debut, got back early 4th of 7 at Wodonga 2yo Hcp on May 24 over 1200m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Impending War with 58kg at $26. Last start came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Bendigo 2yo Hcp on June 14 over 1500m, slow going 1.4 len behind Bayou Music carrying 57.5kg at $19. Needs to lift.
