Moonee Valley Race 2 - The Hygain Valley Summer Middle Distance Series Heat 4 (Bm70)
INEVITABLE AWARD (4) brings the right form into this. A winner at Flemington three back, he's been around the mark in two handy races since, beaten a neck by progressive three-year-old Emphasize at Caulfield last time. He'll be back but if the track is racing fairly, he's the one to beat. MISS TARZY (2) can race on speed and that is worth plenty. She's racing consistently and does like it here. Should be right there. HARMONIOUS SENORA (6) can mix her form but does look ready for another crack at this longer trip. Third to Smokin' Princess two back at Flemington reads well for this. REZONE (5) next best.

Useful type. Last start second last of 11 at Flemington Bm78 on February 15 over 2000m, 6 len behind Revelare carrying 56.5kg at $26. The start before that won by a nose at this track Bm64 January 24 over 2040m defeating Active Duty carrying 61kg at $7.50. Yet to taste defeat here so must be considered.

Most recently set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 7 at Great Western Gr W Cup on January 25 over 1950m, neck behind Brawl carrying 54.5kg at $4. The start before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 9 at Burrumbeet Bbt Cup on January 1 over 1800m, 1.3 len behind Friday At Five carrying 55.5kg at $8. This looks a stern test.
