Gatton Race 7 - Save The Date Sunday 1st November – Melbourne Cup Calcutta Draw Falvey’s Hotel Gatton
QUALITY MISS (9) is the one to beat after her recent win here, edging Besiege by half a length at good odds. That performance followed a solid rebound from her Class 2 run at Sunshine Coast. Her 2000m record, wet-track ability, and venue familiarity make her a strong contender. VICTORY COMMAND (1) shows consistent form, finishing strongly for second at Gold Coast and placing at Dalby, with first-time blinkers and an apprentice claim keeping him competitive. LARUSSO (2) finished just two lengths behind VICTORY COMMAND and All About Artie last time, and his wet-track record offers him a solid opportunity, despite the new 2000m distance. In the mix. HEADLINE LEGEND (5) struggled behind QUALITY MISS here, but his decisive Talwood BM55 win previously indicates he can perform under suitable conditions, making him a potential player for exotics.

Went close at Gold Coast last start, finishing strongly for second behind All About Artie and beaten just over half a length at generous odds. That followed another solid placing at Dalby, where he closed nicely behind Power Of Success. Has placed at the trip and looks ready to win.

Was eighth behind Quality Miss at this track last start, beaten just over four lengths after racing wide and failing to quicken. That was still an improvement on his Bundaberg fifth, where he was beaten just over eight lengths after an awkward start. Others better.

Was never a serious threat when ninth behind Quality Miss at this track last start, beaten just under five lengths after having work to do. The run prior was much stronger, winning a BM55 at Talwood by just under six lengths from Vizstar despite racing wide. Place claims.

Comes back quickly after finishing ninth in a Class 2 at Sunshine Coast, beaten over 11 lengths at big odds and offering little late. His Tabulam third in BM45 grade prior was better, though he raced wide there and still remains lightly effective overall. Earlier BM45 placing gives a small case, but a sharper finish is required.

Backs up after a third at Gold Coast Poly, beaten just under four lengths after jumping awkwardly and being restrained early. Her Sunshine Coast BM65 run two starts ago was plain, but she is seasoned at 2000m with three wins and three placings from 16 starts at the distance. Winning edge is the query, but she can place.

Won at this track last start, beating Besiege by just over half a length after moving into the race and fighting on strongly. That followed a plain Class 2 run at Sunshine Coast, but the return to this venue and trip brought the right response. Drawn well and brings the strongest winning profile.

Went close in BM45 grade at Tabulam last start, finishing second to Legin and beaten half a length, but she now comes from picnic grade into a harder meeting and rises in class. Her Beaudesert run prior was a distant ninth in BM55 company at long odds. Prefer others.

Finished fourth at Kilcoy last start, but was beaten just over nine lengths after being unwanted in the market, with stewards noting she raced keenly. She had been fourth in BM45 grade at Tabulam three days earlier after being tightened at the start and racing keenly again. Not here.

Improved to fourth at Sunshine Coast last start, but it was a five-horse race and he was still beaten nine and a half lengths at big odds. The Grafton run prior was similar, finishing eighth and beaten just under ten lengths when unwanted in betting. Blinkers come off and others appeal more.
