2019 AURIE'S STAR HANDICAP – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

You Make Me Smile will get going early with True Excelsior. Pace drawn towards the standside. SESAR (4) looks drawn ideally with the pace. Got worked up beforehand at Caulfield and never looked comfortable getting around there.

Straight course should suit better, he ran well in the Coolmore here back in the spring, and that run last time might have knocked the freshness out of him. He will get further than this in time but he's got plenty of talent and tipping he can take this out.

ICONOCLASM (3) should run well off a short break. May have a slightly awkward draw but he is a key runner. MILWAUKEE (7) lacks their class but he is fit and the straight 1200m here is his zone. MALIBU STYLE (2) continues to race well and no reason to think that he won't be around the mark again. OOHOOD (6) will be running on.

Form Preview

Fresh-up from last in the Doncaster Mile (Gr 1, 1600m) at Randwick four months ago, So Si Bon caused an upset here to add win three (second stakes) to his 38 race record. The entire field headed for the stand side of the course with So Si Bon easing to be just back of midfield when they settled. Still midfield at the crossing he improved from the 400m to be in behind the pace, he found a gap at the 300m and drove up to second at the 200m. He caught the leader approaching the 100m then pulled clear, away by a convincing length at the post. Malibu Style sat second at the crossing, co-led at the 400m, took over from the 300m but was caught near the 100m, the first two having the finish themselves. A nice effort from the favourite Sesar who from second last at the 400m and flashed into third right on the line while Seaburge finished quite well from midfield to take fourth.
