Belmont

Saturday, May 24, 2025Flat6f

Time for the feature of the day and WESTERN EMPIRE (1) looks primed to bounce back. He was only fair in The Quokka, but won second-up last campaign and scored in this race last year. Will need some luck from out wide, but he's the class horse in the race and a return to his best will see him hard to hold out. THE BOSS LADY (12) was below her best last start at Northam but the track played a little funky there and her prior form was very good. Just missed in The Quokka prior to that and up to this trip is no issue. Looks to get a great run on the map and can go close. Feeling that YONGA LASS (16) is sneaking under the radar coming into this following two good efforts to start the campaign at big odds. She's won 2/4 third-up, she maps well and CJP remains in the saddle. Can cause an upset. WEST STAR (14) looks a very nice horse on the rise in WA. Needs some luck from out wide but can go back-to-back. MAGNIFICENT ANDY (4) goes well third-up and rates highly off his last start effort.

    Last start favourite; came from midfield and won by 1.75 len at Northam G3 Northam Stakes May 11 over 1300m defeating Magnificent Andy carrying 54.5kg at $2.30. The race before that raced on the pace before fading 7th of 13 at Ascot Quokka on April 26 over 1200m, 2.25 len behind Jokers Grin with 56.5kg at $15. Too good last start and can repeat the dose despite the wide alley.

    Second run back. First-up after four months 9th of 13 at Ascot Quokka on April 26 over 1200m, 4 len behind Jokers Grin with 58.5kg at $12. Previously second-up 9th of 16 at Ascot in the G1 Winterbottom on November 30 over 1200m, 4 len behind Overpass with 58.5kg at $4. Rather plain in The Quokka but this suits much better.
