SLB2.0 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Should do and probably would have won last start with a decent jockey in the saddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomass Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Needs to win to get inda Oaks Wals...Just get on! Kiwi filly Intrigue will be chasing crucial prizemoney in a bid to secure a start in next month’s Group One Queensland Oaks when she runs at the Sunshine Coast on Wednesday. Trainer Tony Pike has chosen to bypass the Group Two The Roses at Doomben on Saturday with Intrigue in favour of a midweek run in the QTIS Three-Year-Old Handicap (2200m). It’s the same formula he used with Provocative who won the Queensland Oaks in 2016 after winning a midweek three-year-old race at Ipswich. Intrigue has only $33,000 in prizemoney but Pike is hoping a win will boost her bank balance to around $60,000 which should see her scrape into the Queensland Oaks. Intrigue made her Australian debut finishing seventh to talented local filly Winning Ways in the Listed Gold Coast Bracelet on May 4. “Her run was better than it looks on paper,” Pike said from New Zealand. “She was caught in an awkward position in a slowly run race and she had just got off the plane so there’s plenty of improvement to come. “I had her nominated for The Roses but she’s only got $33,000 in prizemoney and needs to lift it significantly to get into the Oaks. “This race on Wednesday is a lot easier than The Roses and if she can get to around $60,000, she should get into the Oaks.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLB2.0 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 I don't think he's up to the standard of Australian racing. You can't take off six wide extremely early in the race and expect a lightly-tried three-year-old to see it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
