Luckygray and Mr Moet head Railway weights

Monday 11 November 2013, 6:14pm

Local stars Luckygray and Mr Moet have been given equal topweight of 58kg for this month's Group One $1 million Railway Stakes in Perth.

Mr Moet and Luckygray have both won the 1600m feature at Ascot in the past two years with Mr Moet beating Luckygray last year, while Luckygray was successful after a controversial protest in 2011.

Adelaide galloper Conservatorium, winner of Saturday's Group Two Lee Steere Stakes at Ascot, has 56kg along with the Wez Hunter-trained Smokin' Joey who won a Group Three on Derby day at Flemington before a gallant second in Saturday's Group One Emirates Stakes.

Smokin' Joey and the Peter Moody-trained Plucky Belle are late entries for the November 23 race.

The Robert Heathcote-trained Fire Up Fifi is equal favourite on TAB Fixed odds at $6.50 along with Smokin' Joey.

Fire Up Fifi has 54kg, 0.5kg more than another mare in Longport who was an impressive winner at Flemington on Saturday over 1400m.

Heathcote also has the favourite for the weight-for-age Group One Winterbottom Stakes (1200m) on the same program, with sprint star Buffering heading west after back-to-back elite level wins in Melbourne in the Manikato Stakes and VRC Sprint Classic.
