RED TIDE made up a lot of late ground on the tight Cranbourne circuit two starts back and raced like the longer trip would be ideal, but struck soft ground. City debut was solid. Reckon big track here will suit. BACCANO appeals as an improver back on firmer ground. Solid debut in high value country juvenile event on debut. Okay in Pakenham synthetic jump out behind Emanating despite margin, as winner then strolled home on raceday. SHELTERED found the 800m faster class horses like Blethyn and bit sharp in Sandown Hillside jump out on soft ground. Longer trip and back on dry will suit better. MYSTIC RAPTURE has had an excellent preparation and will be able to use natural pace to get a good run from inside barrier. SIHAYA was ran well on debut, but lost a shoe last start when well beaten favourite, with rider thinking tracks with more give would help. Too bad to be true so deserves another chance as produced good figure on debut.
