The Last Word – TABtouch York Cup Night
Tomorrow night sees the running of the TABtouch-York Cup at Gloucester Park, taken out by Our Corelli last year. Get the thoughts of the key runners on the 10 race card below.
RACE 1 – BETTER YOUR BET WITH TABTOUCH PACE
1.Bailey McDonough (Thejewelinhereye): “Went peak last start. I’m giving her a chance in this race and I’ll be holding up. Pressure from Millwood Gucci will be the worry. She does like the genuine tempo.”
3.Ross Olivieri (Just Makemine Diamonds): “Good last week. With a nice run she’s a reasonable chance.”
4.Aiden De Campo (Millwood Gucci): “Awkward draw. Will see where she takes me.”
5.Luke Edwards (Leap Of Faith): “Needed the run. Hope she can improve second-up.”
6.Greg Bond (Starlight Destiny): “Tricky draw and she will need luck from the draw.”
7.Luke Edwards (Flying Phoebe): “Hoping she runs on.”
10.Gary Hall Jnr (Blissfulabbey): “Continues to race well. Inch of luck and she’ll be very dangerous. Each way all day.”
11.Greg Bond (Weewah): “Good trailing draw. Racing well and not without a chance.”
RACE 2 – TREASURY WINE ESTATE PACE
1.John Graham (Stop The Watch): “I would like to lead. Will leave it up to Chris from there.”
2.Gary Hall Snr (Mister Bushido): “Needs to lead. Think Stop The Watch will try and lead. Always draws relatively okay but where he can’t get the lead. He’s going well.
3.Dylan Egerton-Green (Bracken Sky): “Look to press forward. He’s knocking on the door.”
8.Aiden De Campo (Delightfulreaction): “Good last week but the draw hurts. Racing well.”
9.Chris Voak (Gonzos Shadow): “The horse is going very well. From gate nine we will need a holy miracle.”
10.Shannon Suvaljko (A Boy Named Rosie): “Great draw. Will run a place with luck.”
11.Jocelyn Young (Pierre Whitby): “Draw and distance suit. Each way.”
RACE 3 – THE WEST AUSTRALIAN PACE
1.Aiden De Campo (Baylan Jett): “Been waiting for the draw. Racing super. Should be hard to beat.”
2.Dylan Egerton-Green (Alta Rehtt): “Racing super. Has options early and is an each way chance.”
3.Gary Hall Snr (Robbie Easton): “He’s got ability but he’s not overly brave. I’m hoping he comes out quietly and maybe sits outside the leader.”
4.Ross Olivieri (The Last Parisian): “Trickier race. Distance suits. Place chance.”
5.Bailey McDonough (The Party Boy): “Going super but he finds a tough field. When he draws in a touch weaker field is where he will be a nicer bet.”
6.Shannon Suvaljko (C C Chevron): “Going okay but needs luck to play a part.”
10.Jocelyn Young (Mcardles Gem): “Racing in good form. Perfect draw. Each way.”
11.Lindsay Harper (Bettorstartdreaming): “Going okay. Still learning about him. He’s a lazy horse and doesn’t do more than he has to. Don’t know what to expect here.”
RACE 4 – GPHR PACE
1.Greg Bond (Justasec): “Working up well. Draw is a big plus. Should run a good place.”
2.Lindsay Harper (Franco Joaquin): “Difficult for him. Got good gate speed but Justasec is quick and looks hard to cross. We will have a go but it looks hard.”
3.Mitchell Miller (Destined To Rule): “Going as good as anything in this. If he gets the run he can win…or run second or third.”
4.Gary Hall Jnr (My Carbon Copy): “I give him a good each way chance. His third when I drove him was super.”
5.Ross Olivieri (Gee Jay Kay): “Worked terrifically last Saturday. He’s about to improve this week or next.”
6.Kyle Harper (Black Jack Zac): “Racing well without luck. Each way at odds.”
7.Ross Olivieri (Queen Shenandoah): “Unlucky last week. Place chance from good draw.”
8.Shannon Suvaljko (Sergeant Oats): “Good run last start but good field and a bad draw. Wait until he draws again.”
10.Dylan Egerton-Green (Machs Gold): “Perfect draw. Give cheek if he gets clear late.”

RACE 5 – TABTOUCH YORK CUP
1.Gary Hall Snr (Wildwest): “Definitely got the artillery to be a Free-For-All horse. Got stamina and speed. If he led he would be hard to beat.”
2.Kyle Harper (Son Of A Tiger): “Drawn well. Each way chance in what looks an even field.”
3.Gary Hall Snr (Ideal Liner): “He’s a nice horse. If he drew to lead then he’d win a race or two in Free-For-All.”
4.Chris Voak (Bettor Party): “Performing well of late. G-man (Giles) was happy to run fourth last week. I’d assume with that standard he’d be happy to run sixth this week.”
7.Ross Olivieri (Motu Premier): “Drew his usual bad alley. Waiting to show his usual form.”
8.Micheal Ferguson (Waylade): “Raced well first-up. Draw hurts here. We’ll go back here and have him hit the line.”
11.Dylan Egerton-Green (Anime): “Rail is god. Needs luck.”
12.Greg Bond (Galactic Star): “Trained on well. Working well and with a good run he should be in the finish.”
RACE 6 – THANK YOU FROM THE YORK RACING COMMITTEE
1.Kyle Harper (Im Johnny Jet): “Can’t not be on the rail this week. Should enjoy the mile but there’s a couple that could be too strong.”
2.Ross Olivieri (Diamond Life): “Voaky said he went terrific last week. Don’t know about the 1700 but he should be a major player.”
4.Shannon Suvaljko (The Last Drop): “Racing well. Good place chance.”
5.Bailey McDonough (Minimum Wage): “Sees a race where the quality is outside of him. I’d like to see how it plays out but. I wouldn’t be opposed to be working forward and getting cover off a better one if it doesn’t make a lot of work for him.”
7.Greg Bond (Howard Hughes): “Pulled up well from Monday. Expect him to be in the finish.”
9.Gary Hall Snr (Undercover Mac): “I thought he was a good thing inside of Howard Hughes. It’s not going to be easy. I’m not giving up on him. He’s surprised me. He’s got better and better.”
RACE 7 – THANK YOU MEMBERS OF YORK RACING PACE
1.Ross Olivieri (Space Junk): “Very good chance. Return to form in weaker company. Will be hard to toss in front.”

4.Shannon Suvaljko (Mattjestic Star): “Fair draw. Hard to get into it.”
5.Jocelyn Young (Burning Rubber): “Awkwardly drawn in an open race. Needs luck.”
8.Greg Bond (Courage Tells): “Look for short cuts.”

5.Chris Voak (Lifes Delight): “Going well enough. Needs a fast beginning and can earn for connections.”
10.Ross Olivieri (Mr Sundon): “Disappointed me for the first time last start. Changed his shoeing. 50m over a short course is a great leveller.”
