KING OF LIGHT TO RULE NORTHERLY

Dec 6 Perth (Ascot) form analysis

- 

RACE 4

(3) TRIO actually trialled super behind Western Empire and London's Image leading into this campaign and then has taken a few runs to find his feet. However, his most recent start behind Noteworthy in a 72+1,400m was a sharp improvement when Billy Egan went on and now Nash Rawiller gets a go.

(4) ROYAL TORONADO looked like he was going to chime in and run on by last weekend, but hit a brick wall with 50m to go and peaked on his run badly. Backing up and William Pike will keep him short in betting.

(6) BLAZING EMERALD held her own last week. She is trying hard.

(5) CORRECT CHOICE is drawn sticky and could get posted wide in the small field.

RACE 5

(9) ACE QUEEN SUITED jumped all right in her trial but was quickly restrained and settled back in the field, before sustaining an impressive run over the top of a few key rivals whom she meets in this race.

Whether Brad Parnham tries to go forward on debut or lets her find her feet and tries to ride her in the same way she won her trial, she will be a big threat.

(2) RED LARK went around in a Crystal Slipper on debut and there is nothing wrong with finishing 3.7L behind undefeated stablemate Beatty.

(7) PROPERATA led in that trial and was only gobbled up late. He has got the natural jump-and-run ability to be there for a long way.

(11) PARMALEE can use the fence to advantage and Steve Wolfe usually wins an early 2YO race most years. Looked professional enough at Lark Hill.

RACE 6

(1) ROCKING SOCIETY has not quite found his form just yet this campaign but at the same time, he is not going as bad as it might read on paper. First-up beaten IL at 1,600m, second-up did not look to handle York, third-up got shuffled a long way back in a race dominated close to the speed. Fourth-up, senior rider on, blinkers on, drawn a gate, each-way price. Going again.
