RACE 9: 2-5-9-1RACE 3 (4) CHARLAYNE: Lightly-raced filly rises in weight but drops in class and will appreciate return to her own age after resuming in Group 3 company behind Houtzen at Randwick and then showing expected improvement to finish strongly for second to the classy Epidemic over 1100m at this course on May 19 at first run in seven weeks. She won her first two starts over 1100m early in the year in great style (including one on soft ground) and the step up to 1200m should see her continue her upward spiral.
RACE 5 (9) ETYMOLOGY: Has been hard to place since his excellent classic performances as a 3YO but recent efforts under big weights are right up to the standard required to win this evenly graded event. Meets Goathland 2kg better from his second to that horse over 1800m at Randwick two runs back prior to his last start when he was the luckless one finishing a close up fourth over 2000m at this course on May 19 under 61kg. Dropping 5.5kg off that effort and with the positive switch to a stronger rider he is well placed to find that fine 3YO form that saw him run first three in the Victoria Derby, SA Derby and VRC St Leger.SUNSHINE COAST June 2
