Southwell Race 8 - Midnite: Built For 2026 Not 2006 Hcp (Div 1)
STYLE KING (3) held excuses when down field in a much better grade than this last time. Won the start before that attempting this level and returning to this standard could prove hard to beat. MODERN TIMES (2) shaped nicely when 2.5L fifth at Kempton. Good apprentice booked giving handy weight relief while won at this journey previously. Keep safe. FAIR Y ISLE (4) is expected to be primed for reappearance. Appeals as potentially handicapped nicely and looks a threat to all on return. JELLYSTONE PARK (1) can benefit for drop in grade. Remains unexposed after just five outings and brings each way claims.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up struggled in the run home; ran last of 14 at Salisbury on October 1 over 1200m, slow going 12 len behind Regional Rock with 60kg at $15. Second-up ran second last of 11 at Doncaster on October 23 over 1200m, on rain affected going; 29 len behind Intense Vision with 59kg at $34. Strips fitter and good enough to test this field.

Previously second-up 5th of 11 at Kempton Park All Weather on May 4 over 1200m, 8 len behind Thunder Call with 60kg at $34. Rates highly and expected to do much better with that run under his belt.
