Flying Adelaide raider with a liking for the Flemington straight, the Ken Sweeney-trained Riziz has opened top of the tight betting markets for Saturday’s 2013 Aurie’s Star Handicap.
A total of 11 hopefuls make up the field for this year’s $150,000 Group 3 Aurie’s Star Handicap (1200m), a launching pad for gallopers heading towards the riches of the annual Melbourne Spring Racing Carnival.
Of those 11 acceptors, five are under $10 in the Aurie’s Star odds including the early $3.20 favourite Riziz.
Drawn to perfection in gate three with Chris Symons to ride, the Morpehttville-based gelding has won their past two on the trot in Victoria and will be out to make it a Melbourne hat-trick on the weekend.
A winner of seven of their 19 starts, Zariz five-year-old Riziz is also no stranger to Flemington Racecourse.
They’ve twice been tested down the famous straight coming up trumps on both occasions.
The first was a win in the Listed A.R. Creswick Stakes (1200m) in June last year where they beat Zamorar by half a length having won the Adelaide Guineas over the mile back home the start before.
Their other Flemington triumph was also their latest start, Riziz scoring an easy one and a quarter length win over Livigno in the Listed All Victorian Sprint Final (1200m) on July 6.
The other single-figure Aurie’s Star Handicap fancies are then:
Other notable hopes at more generous prices are then the Darren Weir-trained veteran Broken ($10) and last start winner over 1100m at Flemington Falcent ($19) on the rails with the rest of the field at $6 or longer.
