PATRICK MOLONEY 56 FORM SUMMARY HYDRO STAR is a lightly raced colt and has plenty of upside to come. He is likely to settle back from the wide barrier but has a great turn of foot. BRANDERS RULE drops 4kgs from last start and could produce a big run fresh. RULERSHIP has trialed well leading to this.
