Some black type races feature as we head toward the classic races in Perth.
We picked a horse two weeks ago and he was scratched but giving him another spin this weekend.
He was coming off some rich country races and the dominance of the wins suggested Neurological can continue the form.
William Pike has won on him five times since September and he sticks here.
The 4yo hasn’t lost his zest for racing despite a long prep and he is versatile enough to work over.
You have to like horses that keep on winning.
Even though she is only having her second start and straight to 1800m at Listed level, more than happy to take Dark Choice as a big hope.
The Redoute’s Choice filly came from near last on debut at Bunbury, making up a stack of ground from the corner.
She could end up an Oaks runner in time and hopefully won’t need to be so far back this outing.
Suspect we may get decent odds given Pike is riding the stablemate.
