Keen to play 2
Keen to play two horses here as a bracket winning selection, Baraki Beats at around $4.80 and The Forgotten One at $9. Both are eachway propositions and I will play both of them with the hope that one can get the job done in race 5. Baraki Beats is a frustrating enigma with more gear than a 60s hippie who can miss the kick, lay out, pull and just generally be an average bloke of a horse. That being said I think drawn barrier 10 he can gradually work his way to the top and without a lot of exposed speed on paper I think he can lead and control. From there Aaron Mitchell is in the box seat and he is a very good judge of speed having pilotted a similar type horse in Muskets At Dawn to a number of front-running victories. The Forgotten One was held up for the entire length of the straight last start and drawn wide will be allowed to ease back into the field and work through his gears. If he can produce a similar run to last start but get more luck down the home stretch then he will be the one to hold out. Falcon Crest is gunning for a winning hat-trick but rises 3kg on his last start win conceeding 4kg to Baraki Beats and 2kg to The Forgotten One.
