THE ABC BULLION DAMIEN OLIVER
Like the set up for KING ZEPHYR (13) to turn the tables on ZOU SENSATION (4) from their last start clash in the Listed Weekend Hustler at Caulfield. King Zephyr started $1.65 there but got back on a day it was better to be on the speed, came wide and hit the line well. All his best form has been on big tracks and the middle draw at Flemington sets up perfectly. Zou Sensation is a good horse in his own right and maps for every chance. MEDIA WORLD (3) was okay behind Private Eye in the G3 Moonga Stakes last time out. He was well backed to win here prior and should get a good run on speed. The consistent WARNIE (6) was second in the Moonga albeit no match for the winner and should be right there again. NDOLA (14) is up a fair way in grade but drops 7kg and has come back very well.

Most recently 3rd of 9 at Caulfield in the G3 Moonga Stks on October 18 over 1400m, 2 len behind Private Eye with 57kg at $12. The race before that raced on the speed throughout before fading 8th of 15 at this track in the G2 Gilgai on October 4 over 1200m, 5 len behind War Machine with 57kg at $41. Better last time but not sure he's good enough to win with 59kg.
At the latest run 4th of 9 at Caulfield in the G3 Moonga Stks on October 18 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Private Eye carrying 57kg at $6. The run before that 6th of 15 at this track in the G2 Gilgai on October 4 over 1200m, 4 len behind War Machine with 57kg at $14. Going quite well, can hit the frame.
Last start 5th of 9 at Caulfield in the G3 Moonga Stks on October 18 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Private Eye with 58.5kg at $7. Before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a head at this track LR Headquarters October 4 over 1400m defeating Cafe Millenium carrying 55.5kg at $3.30. Racing well, solid each way hope.

First-up. Finished off last campaign when last of 16 at Randwick in the LR Civic Stakes June 21 over 1400m, soft track; 7 len behind Headley Grange carrying 58kg at $51. Previously first up; fifth of 14 at Randwick Bm100 April 19 over 1400m, soft track; 1.4 len behind Sandpaper carrying 60kg at $17. Not keen on his chances this time.
Form hard to fault. Most recently came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Caulfield in the G3 Moonga Stks on October 18 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Private Eye carrying 57kg at $12. The race before that 4th of 11 at this track in the LR Headquarters on October 4 over 1400m, 1.4 len behind Media World carrying 56.5kg at $6.50. Consistent sort who should be thereabouts once more.
Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation seventh of 14 at this track in the LR Winter Cship July 5 over 1600m, soft track; 2.25 len behind Jimmy The Bear carrying 56.5kg at $15. When resuming last campaign third of 13 at this track Hcp March 29 over 1600m, 0.8 len behind Enxuto with 59.5kg at $11. Prefer to see how he returns.
Second-up. First-up after four months got back early 5th of 7 at Moonee Valley in the G2 Mcewen on October 25 over 1200m, 4 len behind Jigsaw carrying 58.5kg at $41. Previously second-up won by a long-neck at Caulfield Vgold Sprint March 15 over 1200m defeating Bossy Nic with 57.5kg at $2.90. Up in trip suits, can give cheek.
Second-up. First-up after four months ran last of 10 at Caulfield in the G3 Northwood Plume on October 11 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind She's Bulletproof carrying 58kg at $26. Previously second-up scored a big 4 len win at Caulfield G3 Mannerism February 22 over 1400m defeating So Glamorous carrying 56kg at $5.50. Not sure she's going well enough.
Dual acceptor. Most recently 8th of 13 at Randwick in the G3 Silver Eagle on October 18 over 1300m, 4 len behind Linebacker carrying 57.5kg at $31. The run before that ran last of 12 at Randwick in the G1 Epsom on October 4 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Autumn Glow with 50kg at $41. Tricky to gauge, his best would be competitive.
Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation fifth of 7 at Randwick Kensington Prem Prel August 13 over 1800m, in the wet; 5.5 len behind Saltcoats with 56.5kg at $6.50. First up last campaign tenth of 12 at this track Davidbourke June 21 over 1620m, 9 len behind Jimmy The Bear carrying 57.5kg at $6. See this one.
Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming eased back early on 7th of 11 at this track in the G2 Bobbie Lewis on September 13 over 1200m, 4 len behind Arkansaw Kid with 53kg at $51. Second run from a spell 5th of 11 at this track in the LR Headquarters on October 4 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Media World carrying 54kg at $17. Likely to find this out of reach.
Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd of 9 at Caulfield in the LR Weekend Hussler on October 11 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Zou Sensation carrying 54kg at $1.65. The start before that favourite; came from midfield and won by 1.75 len at Sandown-Hillside Bm84 September 27 over 1400m defeating So Risque with 59kg at $1.95. Gets plenty in his favour, go close.
