BLUEY’S BEST
6. CHIEF ALTONY ($2.45)
Useful type. Most recently 2nd of 13 at Moonee Valley (Bm100) on July 30 over 1600m, slow going 2.25 len behind Lackeen carrying 51.5kg at $2.40. The race before that held ground to the line 3rd of 9 at Randwick in the LR Winter Stakes on July 9 over 1400m, on heavy track; 2.5 len behind Taksu carrying 54kg at $3.50. Worth following up.
5. FRUMOS ($2.00)
Won all to date. Last start favourite; ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by 2.25 len at this track 3yo+ F&M (Bm78) July 16 over 1400m in heavy going defeating Sur La Mer carrying 53.5kg at $2.10. The run before that favourite; won by 2 len at Newcastle Hcp (C1) June 25 over 1400m on a soft track defeating Field Wiri with 57.5kg at $1.50. Will prove tough to stave off.
11. UNCOMMON JAMES ($2.35)
Third-up today and won third-up in the past. First-up favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2.5 len at Eagle Farm (Bm78) June 25 over 1200m defeating Safework carrying 56.5kg at $2.30. Second run from a spell favourite; settled well back; won by 2.25 len at Doomben 3yo Swp July 9 over 1110m on a soft track defeating Why We Drink carrying 57.5kg at $1.70. Should be near his top.
5. SHADES OF ROSE ($1.65)
