US Season 4 Week 01 Race 05 USRA Maiden Review
Dedicated to EPW for all his efforts. Much appreciated.
1st Capacity
Strong effort here as it started evenly from barrier 7 and raced about midfield never being more than 2 and 3 deep which helped its victory. One to follow.
2nd Rock of Gibraltar
Solid run as it had to endure making a sustaining run at the last turn from the back of the pack and came wide giving up valuable ground to pressure the leader Capacity and causing it to fade slightly. If it had the inside passage would have gone very close to winning as it gained and matched the winner stride for stride from about 350m before tiring about 100m out. Can easily turn the tables next time.
3rd Bold Bishop
Pleasing effort as it found the fence after starting and went to make a run at about the 650m out but was held up and probably lost a length or two. Could have been much closer. Don't dismiss.
4th Ivanna Bea Dancer
Found the fence about 1250 out. Got held up about 400m mark but when got clear running could not get going again. Give her another chance.
Look for Brigidia, Top Lady, Octagonal & Develler with the weight advantage in upcoming races to be right in it.
