Results
ARAMCO (3) has won two of his past three and was dominant winning at this track and trip last time out at just his sixth start. Open to plenty more improvement and drops 4kg from last start. Should go close again. FLASH FEELING (1) drops in class having run well his past couple in Bm100 grade, starting favourite last week at Caulfield. Up in the weights but is right up to these even with 60kg. EL SOLEADO (2) is flying, winning his past two over slightly shorter trips. Out to 2000m now but he should handle that and can measure up again. STAR VEGA (7) won two in a row at the midweeks before another solid effort last time at Caulfield. Can get into the finish. CRIMSON LIGHT (6) ran well first up and and drops some 10kg in the weights. Will be running on.
