Randwick Race 4 - 6 Charge Account

While he failed to meet market expectations first up he did have his fair share of excuses having jumped away awkwardly and was found to be lame following the race. His performance under the circumstances to get within 1.5L of the winner was very good and he should show good improvement racing second up. After missing the start Jay Ford had no choice but to ride him back in the field last start but he is expected to roll forward from the good draw and adopt his usual racing pattern of settling up close to the speed. He is a galloper who has always shown a bit of promise and is expected to bounce back into the winner's stall on Saturday.

Key Trends

  • The engagement of Blake Shinn appears a good push for his chances, he's striking at 21% for the Vandyke stable this season and also rode Charge Account in both his trials leading up to his last start effort.
