Czech Out looks to continue impressive winning form

Damien Moyle, co-trainer of Czech Out, indicated that claiming might have been the prudent choice for the upcoming Morphettville race on Saturday, but he and Gordon Richards are opting to stick with jockey Taylor Johnstone.

Johnstone was not present for Czech Out's initial race appearance but has ridden the horse in all eight subsequent starts, including its trio of victories.

The horse has secured wins in its last two consecutive starts, triumphing under weights of 60kg and 60.5kg. This Saturday, the weight increases to 62kg, a move Moyle supports to maintain continuity with the rider.

"That (weight) is our only query, but he's just been a bit quirky all prep and wanted to do it all differently," Moyle explained.

"One week he's out the back getting scrubbed along the whole way, then the next week he's up on the steel over-racing.

"We just thought the best thinking was the girl who knows him.

"Weight stops everything eventually, but I think he's got a bit of class on them so we'll just see how he goes."

Czech Out is positioned as the second favourite at $4.60, with the Richard and Chantelle Jolly-trained Arizona Dreamer ($2.80) leading the market. Arizona Dreamer will start from barrier four, while Czech Out is set to jump from the second widest gate in the nine-horse field on Morphettville's Parks track.

While Czech Out's last two wins came from inside barriers (one and two), Moyle anticipates the horse will perform well with extra room from its draw.

"I reckon he's come up the inside most of the time, but we reckon he might be even better coming down the outside," Moyle commented.

"You're just always worried at the Parks, if you're a mile off them and they turn a fair bit in front.

"But I reckon with a bit of clear air the top of the straight, which he should get, he might be even better."
