Saga Race 5

1860

Prize Money: $36,500

BELL NO RAISE (1) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip. Meets a stronger field but he is worth another chance. OICHO (4) improved last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 2000m at this track. Sure to run well. COSMO FARNESE (5) dug deep to score two runs back then was disappointing when tenth over 2000m at this track last time a month ago. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will be in this for a long way. DANON TURKISH (2) missed the frame last start when fifth over 2000m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.

At the latest run second last of 8 at this track on March 1 over 2000m, 17 len behind Bikini Boy with 56kg at $45.60. The start before that second last in a small field at this track on February 15 over 1800m, 10 len behind Meiner Timely with 56kg at $7.90. Safely held last time out but this suits.
