GOING: N

THE TAB APP MAIDEN PACE 1980m

Track: FAST   Clear (Max: 21)    

MIKI BE FREE (8) looks ready to break through after a series of close-up efforts at Newcastle, placing in her last two outings. Will have to overcome a back row draw but should be hitting peak fitness now and finds a winnable assignment. There was plenty to like about the latest effort of ELLIE RIPPIN (4) when placed at Narrabri, beaten 2.6 metres. Well placed back to maiden company. Contender. DRIVING MISS MOLLY (1) last appeared four-and-a-half months ago but has been trialling well and is aided by the ace draw. KINTIRE RUSH (6) is stepping out for the first time. By Bling It On and hails from the Rushbrook stable. Trialling nicely so keep safe.
