FURPHY FESTIVE SEASON SPRINT
Results
MUNHAMEK (6) comes through some eye-catching formlines. A smart pair have beaten him home at his latest couple but he has been fantastic in both and his ratings make for good reading against thinner rivals this time. Back to 1200m might be the little query but he is proving very reliable. Trip is of no concern for SNAPPER (3) who has bundles of pace and used it to full effect to beat a nice horse here last time out. Kept fresh since and that can suit. INVINCIBLE CAVIAR (12) is always going to struggle to live up to the hype but she is good and placed in her right company here. The win last time rated well, as did the Sale win first up, and she has a genuine shot. Respect MY YANKEE GIRL (7) second up and MONARCH OF EGYPT (10) is interesting kicking off for Team Hayes. Smart profile in Ireland and easy enough to overlook his time in Hong Kong where he clearly didn't settle in.
