Galaxy Pegasus drops well back in grade and looks hard to go past when stepping out in the Scott Picket BM 64 Handicap (1107m) at Kilmore today.
The Hayes & Dabernig-trained runner kicked off his career with an impressive 7L win at Geelong but was unable to make the big step up when well held in the Group 2 Danehill Stakes behind Rich Enuff.
Taking on much easier company today, Damien Oliver goes on board for the first time and third up is open to more improvement.
Galaxy Pegasus is likely to push forward from barrier 3 and his debut effort rates well on weight adjusted Timeform ratings against these.
The stable, who is in very good form of late obviously have a big opinion of the three-year-old colt having put him in Group 2 company last start and this looks a very good assignment for him.
Unique Storm has been very consistent in recent times and drops back in class after running well for third in a Benchmark 84.
Gets a much needed 2kg claim from apprentice jockey and on what she has produced of late looks the big danger and should be in the finish of this one.
Sergeant Hightower also rates a mention resuming from a spell today. No match in town the run before a spell however form prior was good and he rates well on best form.
Has won when fresh previously and he is also likely to go forward and will be in this for a long way.
These look the main chances along with Barcelona Bound who comes into this off a last start win at Moe.
Gets in well with the 3kg claim and if he can reproduce his last start effort a finish in the placings in certainly not within reach here.
Signor Rocks who has been good in his last couple and General Jay Dee the best of the rest and have place claims in this.
