2019 COONGY CUP – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Wolfe has blinkers on and goes forward from the good draw to lead. Nelson has natural pace and drawn to press on but they may be conservative first up off a long break.

WOLFE (6) looks to get plenty of favours here, controlling things from an ideal draw with the blinkers going back on. Gave a really good sight up in trip in the Bart Cummings and that can have him hard as nails back at 2000m. NELSON (2) is the X-Factor horse. Fantastic effort in the Arc last time he stepped out. Rarely see a class drop this big! Clearly could be in need of the run after over a year off but betting can tell us plenty.

YULONG PRINCE (1) is also easing in grade. Been okay in weight-for-age races and could improve at 2000m back against the handicapper. LUCKY FOR ALL (12) is building and stablemate OCEANEX (13) is interesting on the quick back up.

Coongy Cup (G3)

WT: 54.0kg Type: OPEN

The Japanese-bred gelding Wolfe took his record to six wins from 10 starts in recording his first stakes success here. He was smartly away and soon crossed to the front and then eased to track a new leader (Nelson) before moving up to that horse approaching the 600m. He went to front rounding the home turn and then dug deep when challenged to score a narrow but good win. It was also a good ride by Linda Meech. Top Of The Range settled just beyond midfield but trapped three wide. He improved from the 600m (still deep), challenged on straightening and then fought gamely for (long head) second. Kiwia raced in second last place in the 11-horse field, tracked up (wide) from the 600m, challenged at the 200m and kept fighting on well for third, just in front of Sin To Win who finished fourth after being handy all the way.
