2019 MACKINNON STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Harntell and Gailo Chop come across from out wide and Magic Wand should be positive. HARTNELL (1) was one of many that had very little luck in the Caulfield Cup last time. Run was terrific, and he was strong in the Turnbull at this course and distance prior. Reportedly having his last start here and think that he is going well enough to go out with a bang. Gets a great scenario.

KINGS WILL DREAM (8) beat him home in that Turnbull and he is well suited coming back to Flemington. MELODY BELLE (15) had the perfect storm (literally) last week but she did it well and no issue going out to 2000m now. So reliable she can't be ignored.

CAPE OF GOOD HOPE (13) can bounce back from the Cox Plate while MAGIC WAND (14), who was very good at the Valley, is an interesting runner turned out quickly from the Melbourne Cup.
