Horses To Follow - Moonee Valley 23 June 2010

Wednesday, 23 June 2010 14:00

The rail was out a fair way at Moonee Valley and it seemed you had to be very good to make ground - the following horses did, and caught the eye doing so.

Race 2: Essendon Hyundai i30 Handicap (1533m)

Exclusive Choice was well out of his ground in the early stages and look quite impressive working his way through the field but wasn't able to make up the difference.

Just third up after a short spell expect Exclusive Choice to step out and win at his next outing.

Race 3: Essendon Jeep Wrangler (1533m)

Mont Fleuri was checked to last at the start of the event and tailed the field for much of the event.

Proving that good horses can overcome perceived track bias Mont Fleuri flew through the field over the last 300m and scored comfortably on the line.

Good for another win this prep and will go on to bigger things next time in.

Race 7: Essendon Jeep Grand Cherokee Handicap (2040m)

Tinamou was in a race of his own out in front and clearly the best horse in this race, however Why Do You Ask is on a mission for longer races and was the best of the beaten brigade.

Just second up over 2000m and really struggling in the heavier patch of the course, Why Do You Ask was still able to find the line.

In a run or two over more ground this six-year-old will be very hard to beat at nice odds.
