---|---|---|---|---|
Little early speed on offer so Prairie Legend should be prominent. DOWNTOWN BAR (5) was in the money first-up at the Sapphire Coast then failed badly on a heavy track at the same venue last time. Meets a very thin field today and can bounce back on firmer footing. CONSORTING ONE (4) struggled to make ground when fresh from a spell in heavy going at the Sapphire Coast last time out. Nicely in with the claim and is open to improvement. SMASHING LULU (8) is back from a four-month spell. Wasn't beaten far on debut over this trip at Queanbeyan last prep. In the mix with a repeat of that effort. ITALIAN DIVA (6) is an Exceedance filly on debut for Theresa Bateup. Placed in a recent Kembla trial. Has found a soft assignment to launch her career. SUGGESTED PLAY: Downtown Bar on top in a lowly maiden.
