Topweight Redkirk Warrior looks to win his third straight Newmarket.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race Speed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With an almost capacity field tackling the 2019 Newmarket it will be interesting to see whether the field looks for the outside rail or settles toward the centre of the track. <strong>Eduardo<\/strong> will likely lead closest to the outside rail with <strong>Whispering<\/strong> <strong>Brook<\/strong> and <strong>In<\/strong> <strong>Her<\/strong> <strong>Time<\/strong> looking to settle just off the speed. Early race favourite <strong>Osborne Bulls<\/strong> will look to track the field from the back and pounce as they pass the tower.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Runners<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> OSBORNE BULLS (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebet.com.au\/Australian-Racing\/Flemington\/Race-6\/4161755\/win\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$4.00<\/a>)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Possesses an extreme turn of foot and was outstanding last start down the straight, marginally going down to In Her Time in the Group One Lightning Stakes (1000 metres). The step up in trip to 1200 metres looks to be ideal and her record of nine wins from 14 starts shows he knows how to find the line. Will be flashing home late.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"14\">\n<li><strong> EDUARDO (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebet.com.au\/Australian-Racing\/Flemington\/Race-6\/4161755\/win\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$10.00<\/a>) <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Was strong to the line last start to run third when resuming in the Oakleigh Plate at Caulfield. Has never missed the placings in his six start career and gets in here with a low weight as a lightly raced five year old. Should sit up on the lead \u2013 expect to run a good race.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"20\">\n<li><strong> GRAFF (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebet.com.au\/Australian-Racing\/Flemington\/Race-6\/4161755\/win\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$9.50<\/a>)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This three-year-old has already experienced the pressure of an Everest so the Lees Stable should have him ready to go on Saturday. Ran through the line well last start in the Lightning Stakes but drops weight here and expects to get a good run near the outside rail should it present. Enjoys the dry track.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Race Selection<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li><strong> OSBORNE BULLS (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebet.com.au\/Australian-Racing\/Flemington\/Race-6\/4161755\/win\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">$4.00<\/a>)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The Godolphin gelding continues to go from strength to strength and looks set to run a strong race in his Group One debut. He\u2019s had his last two starts either side of a spell\/freshen up down the straight at Flemington for a first and second. He was dominant before a spell over this trip in the Spring and his fresh run in the Lightning in a trip he\u2019d never contested was outstanding \u2013 looks a great bet for the day.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"blogbutton\" style=\"color: #ffffff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bluebet.com.au\/Australian-Racing\/Flemington\/Race-8\/4161759\/win\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bet Now<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Flemington Race 6 \u2013 15:15 AEDT Group 1 HCP 1200m Prize: $1,250,000.00 Good (4) Rail \u2013 Out 4m Metres Entire Circuit \u00a0 Horse Trainer Jockey Weight (kg) Barrier Current Price 1.
