Kyneton Race 4 - Kyneton Horse Of The Year Primal Spirit Mdn Plate
Hawkes-trained IBERIAN LYNX (2) brought strong form to resumption and led at Geelong beaten a whisker. He should be able to skip over comfortably from the awkward gate and with the extra fitness rates to be winning. Doubt there's much between the best of the remainder. BOYD (14) is an improver in a smart stable and Nolen is a key jockey switch. Third-up now and the speedy colt is ready to show more. TSAVO (12) resumes and has switched from James Cummings. Rates to be in the finish if presented on song and he won a recent Bendigo jumpout. Hurdle sticks from that and will give him every chance from the handy barrier. AREAAN (6) resumes with a Mornington jumpout win under the saddle. He was narrowly beaten from the speed at Bendigo when last seen and has plenty of scope for improvement.
