2019 ROUGH HABIT PLATE – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS
No clear leader but a few of these have set the pace recently. Purple Sector and Masstoo could both push up from low draws. DEALMAKER (1) is getting close to a win after placing at his past two starts in Group company in Sydney. Finished off well for a 1.5L second over this distance in the G3 Frank Packer Plate last time. McDonald should secure him a cushy run from a low draw. Ready to win.
PURPLE SECTOR (4) has only been about a head behind Dealmaker in his last two starts. Shinn should find the right position from the inside gate. Danger. A MAN TO MATCH (3) worked to the line well after a slow start when midfield in the Gunsynd Classic. Won his only attempt at this distance and should be fit third up.
TRUSTY LAD (2) had form around A Man To Match last preparation. He too is an improver third up. The filly LIGHT UP THE ROOM (11) has yet to miss a place at this course.
