PENRITH MAZDA HRNSW GUARANTEED LADYSHIP PACE 1720m

Track: FAST      

HONOLULU PRINCESS (2) enjoys a big class drop after tackling a NSW Oaks heat at Menangle last start. Led to win here three back so can take full advantage of the low draw. KATES VIRTUE (9) gave a good sight when she led and finished second last start, beaten 5 metres at this venue. Draws on the back row but with even luck can pose a serious challenge. CHARLIES ACE (7) locked wheels last week but had placed from this row the previous two times she raced here so deserves another chance. LOOKIN GOOD MARGIE (1) hinted at a return to form with a last-start second and is well served by this draw.

Recent form below what she is capable of. Last start 8th (Fr3) over 1720m at this track was 3rd-3.82 at the bell, beaten 17 m by Boyzhavtime (2:06.00) in NR up to 59 on May 1 at $4.80. The start before failed to finish when she ran at Menangle on April 26 over 1609m. Best form puts her right in this.
