Verdict

ARTICOLE (3) won in a photo finish at Northam last start after sitting wide in the run. A better draw this time suits him much better and Fiore remains in the irons. Looks a nice gelding on the way up and with that run under his belt, he can land the knockout blow once again. LIGHT OF THE WORLD (8) jumped favourite last start and led them up at Northam, being caught right on the post to miss in a photo finish. He's a 2YO taking on the older horses and back to 1200m now looks a good move. Draws well again and can notch up his maiden win. FRIAR'S LEGACY (1) is racing well without winning this time in and maps to sit much closer this time around. ZJP's claim comes in handy and she can sit close to the speed. Sure to be there at the finish. RADIANT LIGHT (6) can give them something to chase after a good win last time out. SUPIDO EXPRESS (2) is third-up now and can put his best foot forward.

Recent form sound. Last start made ground from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Pinjarra Scarpside Cl1 C&G on June 24 over 1200m, 3 len behind Common Touch with 58.5kg at $8. The run before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at this track Cl1 on June 6 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Military Jane carrying 59kg at $3.20. Racing well and should get his chance.

Second-up. First-up after six months favourite; won by a nose at Northam Mdn June 18 over 1300m defeating Cosmo Ruler carrying 58kg at $3.50. Previously second-up ran on from midfield; 3rd of 13 at Pinjarra Mdn on January 3 over 1200m, 0.5 len behind Bulletin Beau with 56.5kg at $2.45. Too good on resumption and he can go on with the job.

Last start tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 7 at Northam 2yo Mdn on June 25 over 1400m, nose behind Manhattan Rhythm with 57kg at $3. The start before that 8th of 11 at Ascot 2yo Swp on April 25 over 1100m, 2.75 len behind Cos I Am carrying 54kg at $9.50. Tougher here but he showed last start he's good enough.

Racing well recently. Most recently favourite; won by 1.3 len at Kalgoorlie Mdn June 21 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Acoustic Bubbles with 56.5kg at $1.60. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 13 at Pinjarra Scarpside 3yo Mdn on June 4 over 1400m, 4 len behind Lady Money Talk carrying 57kg at $3.60. Definite winning chance. Will take plenty of catching from the front yet again.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at this track Cl1 on June 10 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Conducive carrying 59kg at $5. Second run from a spell sat on the pace when 3rd of 12 at Pinjarra Scarpside Cl1 C&G on June 24 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind Common Touch carrying 57.5kg at $11. Third-up now and can make his presence felt.

Before that 4th of 8 at Bunbury Cl1 on June 11 over 1400m, slow going 5 len behind So Much Serenity with 58.5kg at $8. Draws out again but should fare a lot better in this suitable contest.

Second run back. First-up after five months raced on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 10 at this track Cl1 on June 17 over 1000m, on a slow track; 11 len behind Busy Fingers with 59kg at $21. Previously second-up won by 0.6 len at Mt Barker Mdn January 18 over 1000m defeating Nistirith carrying 56.5kg at $31. Fitter but looks a forlorn hope.

Back from a spell. Finished off last campaign won by 0.5 len at York March 2 over 1200m defeating Mahler's Melody carrying 59kg at $21. When resuming last campaign 8th of 11 at Pinjarra Mdn on December 11 over 1300m, 7 len behind Backchatting carrying 58kg at $71. Rates well below most of these and looks to be making up the numbers in this field.

Verdict
Third-up today. Resuming ran second last of 10 at this track Cl1 on May 27 over 1000m, 7 len behind Sniper's Son with 54.5kg at $151. Second-up settled back and ran on when 6th of 8 at Pinjarra Scarpside Cl1 C&G on June 4 over 1200m, 7 len behind Catch Carter carrying 54kg at $151. Can't recommend on that form, looking to others.
