4:05am - FUGEN CHRISTMAS CUP | 2400m | Listed | i

A testing 2400m slog in the wet. Only a couple that go forward, IGGI POP along with perhaps MY PSYCHIATRIST, BEYOND THANKFUL and SOVIET COURAGE (tempo: STEADY). The key form references is behind Malice; BEYOND THANKFUL (2nd, loves wet, slight risk 2400m?), IGGI POP (3rd, pushed wide turn, going well) and DESTINY'S KISS (4th, loves wet) all right in the finish there. SOVIET COURAGE comes from an easier race and poses a big threat in the mud. He did get all the breaks last time though. NOT A GYPSY a knock-out chance and MY PSYCHIATRIST a rough chance of an upset in a much harder race than last week. SPANISH STRIDE Blinkers AGAIN. [updated 9:05am]
