Fairview Race 6

Tab 4Racing App Pinnacle Stakes

Prize Money: $9,099

FAIRY KNIGHT (1) looks the one to beat. Accomplished galloper with 12 wins. The jockey has 10 wins while aboard. Rates highly and can make it three straight. GUY GIBSON (2) is resuming in easier grade. Grade 1 placed. Drawn for a good run and expected to measure up. USA'S HOPE (3) goes well fresh and drawn for a good run. One of the chances. PAS DE NOM (4) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at Fairview All Weather over 1400m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming ran last of 10 at Fairview All Weather on January 6 over 1200m, 8 len behind Golden Pavilion with 60kg at $101. Second run from a spell second last in a small field at Fairview All Weather on January 9 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Mr Fox with 58.5kg at $26. Easily accounted for last time out but this suits.
