GOING: G(4)

JOCKEYS APPRECIATION HANDICAP 1500m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 7m Entire. (Pent: 5.37).  

Solid pace from Captain Maverick and Lady Boss fending off pressure from other on-pacers engaged. LADY BOSS (4) classy mare with the good record of three wins from five starts. Ready for the 1500m now after running through the line late when third over 1300m at Randwick on July 6. Firmer surface helps and expected to race closer from the good gate. Reunited with Gibbons who won on her two-back. AUTUMNMATION (7) has a fitness edge over most of these and will relish the 3kg weight drop after running on late when third over 1550m at Randwick Kensington on July 17. J Mac takes the ride and expected to go close. MICKEY'S MEDAL (2) showed a good turn of foot with the 3kg claim when a tenacious winner over 1500m here on July 20. Rises 2.5kg today and will need a good ride from the sticky gate. Each-way. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,7,2.
