TAB COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN PLATE 1010m

Track: Heavy 10   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: +1m 1500m-1100m, True Remainder.  

Another Bling might not get things his own way up front with a few first starters lining up. Headwater filly PRESTIGE AUSTRIA (8) debuts for the local Lee stable. Won a trial at Grafton on 16 May after a quiet one here a month earlier. Draws the fence and looks a big chance in a race where the exposed form is pretty dismal. Another Lee runner in LAND SPEED (3) last raced almost a year ago when beaten a long way into fourth over 1100m at Hawkesbury. Can finish a lot closer in this far easier contest if forward enough. HERE'S BEAU (2) is a first starter from the John Shelton barn. Placed in a recent Grafton trial and looks good enough to make his presence felt. WASHIK (7) next best but it is hard to see her winning. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Prestige Austria.

Second-up. First start ran last in a small field at Kempsey Mdn-Sw on December 15 over 1000m, slow going 36 len behind Zouking with 57.5kg at $15. Went for a break before returning second last in a small field at Port Macquarie Mdn-Sw on May 18 over 1006m, on rain affected going; 13 len behind River Biscotte carrying 59kg at $19. Fitter but not sure he is capable of winning.

When resuming last campaign of 10 at Hawkesbury Super Mdn on October 24 2024 over 1000m, 6 len behind Benzou with 56.5kg at $151. Was runner-up in a trial at Gold Coast Poly on May 19 over 685m. Check the betting off such a long break.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, 4th of 10 at Grafton Mdn-Sw on April 7 over 1005m, slow going 6 len behind Spectorious with 58.5kg at $61. Strips fitter and is in the mix in a thin race.

Stephen & Jordan Lee trained two-year-old filly on debut. Won a recent Grafton trial. Good draw will assist chances. Trained here and in a lowly maiden she gets her chance to break through immediately.
