An eye catching Australian debut leaves the Darren Weir trained Wyoming well placed to break through at Ballarat this afternoon.
Formerly based in New Zealand, the son of Zabeel hit the line gamely at Mornington, when finishing a close fourth last start.
Set to contest the sixth event, Wyoming is expected to relish the step up to the mile and is open to further improvement on career best form.Using Timeform weight adjusted ratings, Wyoming sits clear of his rivals on 12 month figures.
Brad Rawiller links aboard for the first time and is currently striking at just shy of 20 per cent for the Darren Weir stable.From the awkward draw, Wyoming is likely to settle just off midfield.
His closing sectionals were very strong last time out and if able to settle a bit closer to the speed, he should prove very hard to hold out.The Robbie Griffiths trained King Deano appears one of the biggest dangers, following his maiden victory last start.
Proving too good at Sale, the son of King Fe Lago has steadily improved with each performance this time in.King Deano has placed in three of five attempts over the mile and has drawn to receive all the favours.
Matthew Allen sticks, having placed in two of five previous attempts.On career best form he does have a bit to find on Wyoming, however he is heading in the right direction this time in and must be respected.
Last start maiden winner Toakio Tower must also be considered, given he defeated King Deano last start.The apparent second elect from the Darren Weir stable, Toakio Tower has often struggled with consistency, however the penny may have finally dropped now.
His last start performance saw him rated marginally below his stablemate and he must be considered with Dean Yendall sticking aboard.Of the rest both Little Schiller and Dala must also be respected.
Good luck and happy punting.
