Couldn't split them so trifeca them

Selections

I couldn't split my top 3 in Kheleva, Wild Charger and Dark Delight so I'll simply throw them into a cheeky trifecta to round out the day. Kheleva is a 1400m specialist, winner at 5 from 6 starts at the distance and has the services of P.Harvey in the saddle; Wild Charger is latent with ability but a fairly frustrating horse to follow, seeming to find trouble whenever he races; Dark Delight a notorious wallet burner for favourite punters, finishing bridesmaid on 6 occasions in a 13 start career including 4 of her 6 runs at Ascot. In the end I've stuck with the Pontiff and regardless of the 59kg impost believe Kheleva is the one to beat. Wild Charger found a heap of trouble last week after Darren forgot to mention him once in the call, knocked around like Lachie Neale at the bottom of a pack, he did well to finish as close to the winner as he did. Finally who can disregard Pike in the last, he seems to win more of these than he loses so Dark Delight to round out my trifecta.
