Verdict

Former Kiwi SHANKYS SHOT (6) made an encouraging debut in Queensland when he came from this barrier for third over 1 m at this venue. Fitter so has winning claims. FITZROY (5) only beat a couple home last week but was going well prior having kicked off his campaign with a win and two placings. Can bounce back. JAMES ALFRED (3) has been thereabouts of late and was solid again when fourth last week. Had recorded a win and two placings from his pervious three starts. Draws for a good showing. ETERNAL BLISS (2) missed by just a nose last start and won twice in a row prior. Draws well so respect.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Rabbit

Also known as a pacemaker; this is a horse with no expected chance of winning but is used to prompt a quick pace on the front end of the race to the benefit of a stablemate who is a closer.

Blinkers

A hood worn on a horse’s head to limit side vision, which can improve concentration. Blinkers are added or removed to relax a horse or give it more focus.

Also Eligible

A horse that is entered but does not draw into the body of the field due to too many entries, and thus is not permitted to start unless there are enough scratches to shrink the field size.
