2019 HALL MARK STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Interesting sprint contest with not a great deal between these on best form. Speed should be solid over the 1200m journey.

HOME OF THE BRAVE (2) raced in great order last preparation and remains a big watch fresh for the James Cummings stable. Two trials in the lead up have been very good and the booking of JMac is a decent push. Expected to roll forward and prove hard to get passed.

Stablemate VIRIDINE (4) simply didn't handle the track last start, but his effort prior was very good and he commands respect with Bowman aboard.

EASY EDDIE (5) is airborne this preparation and has to be included in the main chances, while TREKKING (10) can also improve sharply second up.

1200m TURF GOOD

Form Preview

In a packed finish, the Godolphin-raced gelding Trekking scored his second stakes victory and his sixth win in 17 starts. He settled in sixth place (one off the rails) behind a quick tempo before moving up nicely rounding the home turn. He got to the front at the 100m and then held on well to score by a neck in a quick time (1:08.61). Brave Song settled in last place in the 11-horse field, commenced his move on passing the 300m and then came with a good run for a late-closing second. Redouble began well but then eased from his outside barrier (11) to settle in eighth place. He fanned deep on turning for home and then ran on for a close-up third in a smart effort, resuming here. Viridine was back in ninth place, got a split at the 200m and then ran on nicely for (0.6 lengths) fourth. The favourite Home Of The Brave went to the front but was pressured for the lead (by Miss Cue) and then faded over the latter stages for (1.1 lengths) seventh after a testing trip resuming here.
