2019 NORTHAM STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Super Maxi and Captain Stirling can make the speed. ROCK MAGIC (1) franked his ability last campaign at Group 1 level in Melbourne and spelled after a dominant win in the Roma Cup at Ascot when he ran a big peak. Has been away for a year, but impressed in a recent Lark Hill trial. The 9x winning rider sticks from that and he can win if sufficiently forward. 

FIRST AMONG EQUALS (2) resumes and has performed at Group level in Melbourne. He gets the rail and has won four times fresh. He’s right up to this.

ELECTRIC LIGHT (10) missed a lip second-up at Ascot on an Open FM and then disappointed at Listed level the same sex and venue. Comes in at the bottom of the weights with 6x winning rider Pike getting back on and can surprise. DURENDAL (3) resumes and is a genuine chance if ready. He’s trialled and keep very safe.
