Races CRB Darwin

Tough win after setting up a strong tempo and holding his opposition out 22/6 over 1600m. Tough competitor who will keep this field honest and he is the 2024 Alice Springs Guineas winner as well. Consider.

Sat up on the speed 8/6 over 1200m before being caught by STARTON on that occasion. Runner-up in the Alice Springs Guineas who has more than his share of ability with the distance being his main query here.

Go back to his effort two starts ago 8/6 over 1200m where he caught the eye behind STARTON although well held that day. Disappointed at his latest run, however he is a winner over this trip previously so is in the mix.

He came in for solid support 22/6 over 1300m but never really appeared to look comfortable in the run behind HE'S MAVERICK that day. His previous interstate form was sound so may improve after a run on this track.

Turned his form around 22/6 over this distance when he settled on the speed and held his opposition out in a gritty display that day. No issues around this journey and he looks more than capable in this line-up.

Big win 22/6 over 1300m where he sat back off the speed before finishing powerfully that day to win impressively for trainer Kym Healy. Winner at this trip previously all points to him being hard to beat today.

The son of REAL STEEL makes his Darwin debut today for the Gary Clarke stable. He is a last start winner at Cranbourne 10/5 over 2520m suggesting this trip will not be an issue so it would pay to keep him safe here.

He has taken a real liking to the Fannie Bay track and he lost no admirers 22/6 over 1600m where he loomed up to win, but just couldn't get past FABERGE TZAR that day. May strip fitter for that effort so must include.

Big bold front running type who was outstanding over 1200m two starts ago 8/6 where he sat off the speed before finishing powerfully to win hands/heels that day. Disappointed at his latest however he has good ability.

Terrific on speed debut effort behind HE'S MAVERICK 22/6 where he kept working to the line nicely that day. He did win at Orange over 1610m previously suggesting this trip will suit, so he is right in the mix.

Caught the eye making up good ground late behind HE'S MAVERICK 22/6 over 1300m. Pushes out to what should be a more preferable trip today and with a little luck in running he will prove hard to hold out.

Nice effort 22/6 where she showed good early speed to share the lead and kicked on solidly enough behind HE'S MAVERICK over 1300m. Should go forward again today and she is capable of showing some cheek here.

Kept working to the line behind GIFT OF GOLD over 1300m 29/6 in what was a fair debut in the Top End. He looks to have his share of ability however there has to be a slight concern over this distance. Respect.

He did come in for solid support 29/6 over 1300m where he pushed forward early to share the lead before just battling in the straight behind GIFT OF GOLD on that occasion. On the quick back-up and he does need to lift.

Good improvement 22/6 over 1600m behind FABERGE TZAR where he kept finding the line on that occasion. Same distance here and he may now be on the improve, however he still must improve significantly. Respect.
