Darryl Sherer - Tuesday September 19

Several horses nominated for races at Caulfield at the weekend produced some sharp gallops at Flemington on Tuesday.

The Neville Parnham-trained Malibu Style has taken good improvement from his first-up run and he was allowed to stride the last part of his gallop on the steeple grass while the Mike Moroney-trained stayer Vengeur Masque powered through the line at the end of his grass gallop.

Markers on the steeple grass were out two metres, riders reporting the ground riding in the good (4) range.

Racenet has compiled a list of times below with an analysis of the work to assist punters.

Horse	Distance	last 400m	Comment
Malibu Style	1000m (Steeple grass) 1:06.99	23.46	Steady early before building passing the 600m. Allowed to roll in the straight and sharpest the last 100m. Nominated for the Testa Rossa Stakes.
Second Bullet & Watchmespin	1400m (Steeple grass) 1:36.92	24.38	Second Bullet sat off the younger filly through the early stages, joining in off the bend. Together through the line and both well on the bridle. Second Bullet nominated for the Naturalism Stakes, Watchmespin for the Super VOBIS Handicaps over 1400 & 1600m.
Tally	1600m (Steeple grass) 1:53.29	24.91	Touch casual early then settled into a rhythm. Gradually built and powered through the line under a hold. Nominated for the Naturalism Stakes.
Bandipur	800m (Steeple grass) 55.48	25.63	Short and not too sharp. Rated from the off and under a hold in the straight, keen to go faster but not allowed. Nominated for the Super VOBIS 3YO Handicap over 1100m.
Fragonard	1000m (Steeple grass) 1:09.63	26.03	Keen but controlled from the off. Consistent through her three-quarter speed and well on the bridle in the home straight. Nominated for the How Now Stakes.
War Legend	1000m (Steeple grass) 1:05.07	24.27	Looks well and very keen from the off before settling into a rhythm. Travelleing strongly off the bend but restrained and through the line with ears pricked. Nominated for the Open 1400m Handicap at Caulfield and the 1300m Handicap at Morphettville.
Lakhoni	800m (Steeple grass) 51.67	23.34	Sat off the quarters of a mate until the bend then joined in and shaded the work, on the bridle through the line and done easily. Nominated for the Super VOBIS 3YO Stakes.
Vengeur Masque	1400m (Steeple grass) 1:37.04	24.07	Rated just off a mate until passing the 600m and joined in off the bend. Shaded the work and strong through the line well on the bridle. Nominated for the Naturalism Stakes.
Bubba's Call	1000m (Steeple grass) 1:09.23	24.67	Consistent in his three-quarters and built gradually off the bend. Not allowed to go any faster in what was a maintenance piece of work.
Weather With You	1000m (Pro-Ride) 1:07.22	23.93	Looks to have taken good improvement from his last start. Keen from the off but in a consistent rhythm and strong in the straight, wanting to go faster but held together.
Bouwmeester	1000m (Pro-Ride) 1:03.26	23.27	Works like Tarzan but racing like Jane at the moment. That said he is getting better race day and when he brings his morning form to race day he should be winning. Along with Malibu Style his last 200m the best of the morning.
