2019 THE KOSCIUSZKO – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

A capacity field lines up in this year's Kosciusko with a number of talented types set to line up. Speed should be solid.

VICTOREM (1) went to the paddock in great form and has been well set up for this with two impressive trials. Goes like a bomb fresh and is very well placed at the weights. Drawn to get the gun run and with Berry aboard, he should take plenty of beating.

HANDLE THE TRUTH (8) didn't have the best of luck first up and can improve sharply here. Handles all conditions and looms as a major threat. NOTATION (12) continues to race well and has to be kept safe dropping back in trip. JMac a key booking. NOBLE BOY (3) the next in line.

Form Preview

Handle The Truth was given a beautiful ride by Nash Rawiller to land the big prize for country trained runners and was driven out to a one length win, his seventh win in 13 starts. He jumped away well then eased a shade to settle fifth, one off the fence. Still poised in fifth rounding into the home straight he then moved out four wide to challenge inside the 400m. Gathering momentum, he cruised up to be one of four across the track at the 200m then drove into the lead and they weren't going to catch him after that. Victorem was worse than midfield at the 800m, improved rounding into the home straight but was blocked until the 300m. He took a while to wind up once clear and was gaining on the winner late but too late. A super run from Bobbing who was last (rails) at the top of the straight and didn't get out until inside the 200m then flew for a close up third. Noble Boy was trapped, sixth last turning in and when clear tried hard the length of the straight for a close up fourth.
