RACE EIGHT ANALYSIS by The Wizard on Saturday, December 05, 2009

ANALYSES OF THESE HORSES ARE PLACED IN POST POSITION ORDER. THESE ARE NOT MY SELECTIONS.

RACE 8

3 NATIVE ROCK
Current form not very inspiring, but could wake up at a price stretching out and a huge rider change to Graham. Hails from a very underrated trainer.

5 HIGH HOPES MALIBU
Dangerous speed dropping back to the $5,000 level. Faltered in last after setting a solid pace under pressure in last. Should hold on better in his 2nd start off a layoff. From a high % trainer.

6 ASSISTANT K J
Big improvement expected stretching back out to 2 turns off a sprint prep returning from a layoff. Lone win came over this course at 2 turns.

7 A BIT STORMYExits same race as top pick where he closed well to get 2nd. Has had trouble breaking well from the gate but with a cleaner start, he should be rolling late.
