Eagle Farm Race 9

Ladbrokes Top 2/3/4 Betting (Bm78)

Prize Money: $85,000

They'll go like the clappers in this. BELEGATO (3) has handy figures over this sprint trip with two wins and four placings from eight attempts and has been given a bit of a freshen since just missing the frame in a tougher race last time out. Handles all going and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. FLYING DESTINY (2) has been competing in harder Sydney contests and will appreciate the drop back in company here. A better showing would not shock. ARISPHERE (12) saves her best form for this 1000m journey and gets 1.5kg off from the favourable draw. Ticks a few boxes. PARETO (14) ran second in a Randwick Highway before the spell and has since posted a Doomben trial victory. In the mix while fresh. The well-related EMPEROR (1) (half to 3xG1 winner Joliestar) rounds out the selections in a competitive affair.

Half-brother to three-time Group 1 winner Joliestar. At the latest run favourite; ran on from midfield and won by a nose at Grafton Ctryassoc - Cl6 July 17 over 1175m defeating Power Beau with 59kg at $3. The start before that favourite; won by a neck at Doomben Bm70 June 25 over 1110m on a rain affected track defeating Ellibaby carrying 60kg at $19. Today's race will be harder but he looks up to the task.

Most recently favourite; won by 0.8 len at Gold Coast Bm58 July 12 over 1000m on a rain affected track defeating On The Target carrying 60kg at $2.35. The start before that gave a sight but was run down late 2nd in a small field at Gold Coast Cl4 on July 5 over 1000m, on a slow track; nose behind The Fixer with 52kg at $2.70. Will find this a tougher assignment.
