2019 MCEWEN STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Eduardo and Faatinah fly from low draws and Miss Leonidas will be looking to work over from wider.

BOOKER (6) will let the speed go but she doesn't have to get a long way back from her draw and her Oakleigh Plate win first up last prep jumps off the page. She was terrific there and a quickly run 1000m looks ideal for her first up. Jumped out as though back in really good order.

EDUARDO (4) was brave behind her in that Oakleigh Plate and he will be in the race for a long way. BONS AWAY (3) also ran well in that Oakleigh Plate and has a hope with luck from an awkward draw. PROPHET'S THUMB (10) will spot them a start but talented and trialling really well up in Sydney.

Mittys McEwen Stakes (G2)

Type: OPEN

Resuming from a win and two placings in four starts in his second productive Middle East campaign, Faatinah did best in a fairly crowded finish to claim his fourth stakes and eighth success overall. He held a narrow early lead but settled second, sitting a half length back of the leader. He almost levelled up at the 600m, co-led inside the 400m but was second at the top of the short straight. Rallying, he caught the leader and put his head in front at the 75m then gamely held them at bay by a short neck. Bons Away sat sixth, four deep down the side, ranged up into the straight and formed a line of three at the 50m but the winner fought him off. Eduardo led or co-led to the 100m and when tackled held on well for third while Meryl cut the corner into the straight and kept on strongly along the inner for a close up fourth.
