Sale Race 5 - Fantasy Cocktails Mdn Plate
OTTOLENGHI (11) was well supported on debut but could only manage second. Strips fitter and looks perfectly placed to go one better with Shinn taking over. FASTOBULLET (4) is knocking on the door and should be ready to peak now at his third start. Williams rides and is a genuine winning hope. VICTORIOUS SPIRIT (7) was close up again at Seymour last time when third. Still on the up and is right in the mix. GOOD FEELING (9) battled on gamely when resuming at Sandown-Lakeside and will strip fitter. Capable of featuring again. CINTURATO (2) is also expected to improve sharply rising in trip. Keep safe.

Was well in the market at debut, 5th of 8 at this track 3yo Mdn-Sw on August 17 over 1100m, 4 len behind Shinjina with 58kg at $4.40. Will take a lot from that hitout and is a key runner.

She is resuming after a four months break. Finished off last campaign seventh of 10 at Pakenham 2yo F Mdn-Sw May 15 over 1200m, 6 len behind Biologics carrying 57kg at $9.50. On debut fifth of 8 at Ballarat 2yo F Mdn-Sw April 27 over 1200m, soft track; 5.5 len behind Vivid Sun carrying 55kg at $8. Prefer to see how she returns.

Second-up. First start came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 9 at Geelong 2yo Mdn-Sw on April 23 over 1212m, 2.25 len behind Green Spaces carrying 56kg at $10. Went for a break before returning sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 11 at Sandown-Lakeside 3yo Mdn-Sw on August 20 over 1200m, slow going 1.0 len behind Humble Trader with 56kg at $4. Likely to measure up again with a repeat performance.

At debut, ran last of 8 at Pakenham Synthetic Mdn-Sw on August 29 over 1100m, 6 len behind Bama Slama carrying 55kg at $16. Would have to improve significantly on what we've seen to play a role here.
