Alinghi zips up at Randwick
Golden Slipper hotpot Alinghi hasd a leisurely gallop at Randwick today to finalise her preparation for Saturday’s $3m dash at Rosehill.
Alinghi strode over 800m in 57.8 but was given rein in the straight to zip up the last 200m in an impressive 11.3.
“She looks a treat and Lee (Freedman) has got her spot on for Saturday,” Randwick clocker Craig Tompson said.
Alinghi has been the stand-out two-year-old throughout the season. Her only danger, according to most experts is bad luck.
Equal second favourite Charge Forward also ventured on the gallop arena this morning but Tompson said he was never off the bit.
"He ran a similar time to Alinghi for 800m in 57.5 but his last furlong was only 14," he said.
Dance Hero, Gai Waterhouse's best hope, was restricted to a trot and canter around the centre of Randwick.
