Lunar Diety has maximum score today
The form does not appear good enough as it's a big jump from class 4 to class 2, but an interesting Jockey booking. The spot is from both sources for this today.
Only 6 days since run is not the normal for winners at this grade.
Tarooq with very similar form as 6yo finished a very close 2nd here in Jan 2012
George Guru (5yo) won in March here same year with similar form
Records over 3 years show that horses with last 2 winning runs do not often win in races over 8f in this grade on AW (Melvin The Grate)
Mild interest in Tom Dascombe who sends three here today (Thataboy)
Recent data shows that on Saturdays Top Scores with CD and high weights can win.

FLAT RACING
Two winners
Pleasantly surprised to see Lunar Deity had won but even better to see Melvin The Grate had lost. Had more on the lay than the win.
I see my other bet, Thataboy, had a barging match with another runner. Should have not ignored the fact that claimers don't seem to do that well in this grade hcp, 2 wins from 18 races at Linga and 8 wins from approx 62 races all tracks since 1st Dec. jockey had won one over track & distance though.
