GOING:

STEPHEN HARMEY MEMORIAL 1646m

Track: GOOD      

SILENT FEARS (3) was in the money on debut two runs ago then went well again last time over 1609m at Newcastle, finishing 2.5 metres from the winner in second. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw and has the class to take this out. BOBBY WALNUTS (2) ran third last start at Newcastle over 1609m, beaten 18 metres. Expecting a very good run from the low draw. OUR ULTIMATE MAY (10) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a second over 1609m at Tamworth. Great chance to break through. ROOBEE (4) must be considered after she finished runner-up over 1609m at Newcastle two weeks ago. Top-three conveyance again.

Finished second at her last two starts since resuming from a spell. Last outing was beaten 2.75 metres behind Scattershot at Tamworth over 1609m MAIDEN on December 11. Racing well without winning and looks hard to beat again.
