Gr 1 Flight Stakes

A very even rendition of the Gr 1 Flight Stakes. We have looked at all runners, worked out patterns and come up with a preview and Top 4.

1. Apocalyptic (7)

Best Bet
J: Tommy Berry T: Michael Freedman

Top class filly who has consistently run as if she is the premier 3YO of her cohort. Won past two starts, the major lead-ups and drawn to be just off pace with cover. Should prove very hard to beat again.

2. Artistic Venture (1)

Best Value
J: Dylan Gibbons T: John O'Shea & Tom Charlton

Outstanding filly. Got a mile back but came with a wet sail for 2nd to Apocalyptic over 1400m in Gr 2 Tea Rose. Races like this trip will suit. Is 4th up and is trained here. Big danger.

3. Tupakara (11)

J: Ethan Brown T: Team Archibald

Top class, luckless filly. Is a real threat because she is so honest and has form around the best of these. Will be 3rd up here. Yet to win a race but is Gr 1 placed. And this trip looks perfect.

4. Within The Law (2)

J: Jason Collett T: Bjorn Baker

Top class but not hitting the line as hard as she used to. Is Gr 1 placed this trip and recent form, which isn’t bad, may be because of the tracks. On her day she can win.

5. Queen Of Clubs (4)

J: Nash Rawiller T: Gary Portelli

May be the dark horse here. Can really rocket home and looked strong late when coming from 11th and grabbing 4th behind Apocalyptic in Gr 2 lead up. Should drop out the back and then spout wings late. Big show.

Maiden galloper who stepped up to stakes grade last start and while not blown away, was about 4 lengths behind them and should be again.

9. Reflect (8)

J: Adam Hyeronimus T: Joe Pride

Has taken some time to find her feet but it came together at Kembla last start in 1500m maiden when she was too tough late. This is grades harder but is improving.

10. Magenta Skies (6)

J: Tim Clark T: Michael Freedman

There is a definite vibe in the air about this filly. She seems very good, although form to date, has been in very easy races at the provincials. May be a race or two too soon for her but she will put in a big run. Place.
