Caulfield Race 2 - Ascend Sales Trophies (Bm78)
Tricky. BLUESTONE (4) caught the eye first up with a big close from an impossible spot here over 2000m then looked a bit plain second up at Sandown Hillside, sent out $2.50 and just battling. Again, he found a very slow race and is crying out for a true test. The issue is, there looks little speed on here. If they want to use him up and set the tempo, he'll go close. MR BANNOCK (9) might be the one to take up the lead and control the tempo. He won an easier race at Pakenham when last seen and will carry 51kg after the claim here. ZIBULON (10) comes back from 3200m in the Adelaide Cup last time when battling away well. He beat home BLUESTONE prior so must have claims. FLAMIN' ROMANS (1) was good in the Torney Cup at Pakenham last start and has the ability to beat these despite giving away a bit of weight. SAMUEL LANGHORNE (2) didn't fire in the Adelaide Cup but had been coming along well prior and has claims.

Most recently set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 7 at Pakenham in the LR Torney Cup on March 6 over 2500m, 0.8 len behind Bright Legend with 54kg at $6.50. The race before that 11th of 14 at Flemington Bm78 on February 14 over 2000m, 6 len behind Tarvue with 58.5kg at $15. Thereabouts last time out. Going well and can win with the big weight.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 3rd of 14 at Sandown-Hillside Bm74 on February 25 over 2400m, slow going head behind Hurry Curry carrying 54.5kg at $26. Second-up 7th of 18 at Morphettville in the G2 Adl Cup on March 9 over 3200m, 10 len behind American Wolf with 53.5kg at $21. Capable of a better showing. Best form gives him a huge chance.
