2019 SIR RUPERT CLARKE STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Cliff's Edge rolls forward but Begood Toya Mother and Age Of Chivalry could hold him out from their low draws. Expect a true tempo.

BEGOOD TOYA MOTHER (14) worked hard in the run in the Memsie last time. That was a high pressure Group 1 and he stood up well. Back to a handicap now and he tumbles to the minimum. Set for the race and it looks like they have got it right. Top pick.

AMPHITRITE (12) ran really well first up. Closed strongly and if the leaders do crumble here she looks the best placed to sweep through and pick up the pieces.

SO SI BON (5) has been fantastic in two runs this prep and rates highly on his Memsie effort. WIDGEE TURF (8) and DESPATCH (3) are good 1400m horses that need to be given hopes.

Form Preview

The highly consistent Begood Toya Mother, a winner of six of his previous seven starts, capped his rise through the classes by taking out the Group 1 race in good style. He was smartly away as usual, led early on but eased to a mid-race challenge (from Iconoclasm) to travel in second place before going to the front on turning for home. He then battled on gamely to score a very good win. Age Of Chivalry was second early on, then raced in fifth place on the rails before getting through on the inner and into clear running on straightening. He challenged at the 200m and then fought well for second. Widgee Turf settled beyond midfield, got along the rails at the home turn and then kept battling on nicely for third. Streets Of Avalon raced in fifth spot to the home turn, got into clear running at the 200m and then held on well for fourth, beaten just under three lengths. So Si Bon raced in eighth place, one off the rails, went deep on straightening and then ran on nicely for (3.3 lengths) fifth.
