MLJET

Owned and ridden by the Wylie Hall combination of Michael Leaf and MJ Byleveld he takes on a decent field but I think he will be up to the task on Saturday.

Whilst MLJet debuted and won against winners, he was in receipt of 3.0kgs. MLJet was ultra impressive, and the runner up, Jayyed, didn't disgrace himself in a feature on July Day when running 5th, 2.55 lengths behind Afrikaburn. If we use and accept the collateral form argument for MLJet, then let's keep like for like when making a case for Light Up The Lights.

Two runs back, LUTL ran second to Forries Wlatz, 1.50 lengths behind, carrying level weights. On the very same day, in the LHB tool, LUTL would have run less than 0.20 lengths behind Serissa at level weights. Serissa came out and finished ahead of Futura in the Cup Trial two runs later. We all know why Forries Waltz did not compete in the race won by Afrikaburn on July Day. In it's next race, LUTL literally romped in. The runner up, Mootahadee, franked the form by winning next time out.

If we go on collateral form, then you'd have to agree LUTL's is better.

Quite frankly, 14/10 about MLJet is too short in my view, when you have a competitor in the same race trading at 9/2 with the better collateral form. I'll side with LUTL, should be a good race in prospect.
