GOING: S(5)

SHARP PROJECTS SUPER MAIDEN PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT 6   Clouds (Max: 21)   Rail: True.  

Strong tempo with The Magnet, Gamp and Stubborn Emmelie leading the way. STUBBORN EMMELIE (7) raced on the pace and stuck on gamely but found one better on debut over this distance at Wyong last start. In good hands and with that run under her belt she looks ready to open her account. THE MAGNET (8) has not been produced since October when she led for the judge on debut over today's trip at Hawkesbury before fading. The winner of two recent trials so she looks to be back in great shape and can give this a shake. GAMP (4) is back after a 195-day spell. Opened last prep with a game second at Newcastle then went on to fill four straight top four finishes before being turned out. Recent Rosehill trial winner who looks ready for another bright return. BRAZEN DIVA (3) registered her sixth minor placing from 11 starts when she led but just failed to hold on over 1200m at Port Macquarie recently. Placed at three of six over 1000m - sure to take some catching. SAMMY THE BULL (2) did enough first-up to suggest he is in for a decent campaign. SUGGESTED PLAY: Stubborn Emmelie to win.

Mare back from a spell of six-and-a-half months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last preparation fourth of 10 at Wyong Mdn-Sw August 31 over 1000m, 1.4 len behind Whatalegacy with 57kg at $7.50. First up last campaign second of 8 at Newcastle Mdn June 14 over 900m, on heavy track; 1.0 len behind Hoku carrying 57.5kg at $3.50.

Second-up. First-up after five months came from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Tuncurry Mdn-Sw on February 21 over 1000m, long-neck behind King Of Vegas with 57kg at $26. Previously second-up second last of 10 at Scone Mdn on July 14 over 1200m, 5 len behind Royal Armada carrying 57kg at $7. Fitter but facing a tougher assignment and doesn’t appeal.

Was at long odds at debut, 3rd of 7 at Taree Mdn on March 3 over 1000m, slow going 2 len behind Radio Ga Ga carrying 55kg at $31. Draws a nice gate but this is a tougher maiden so she might struggle.

Was well-supported at debut, 2nd in a small field at Wyong 3yo Mdn on February 21 over 1000m, 1.1 len behind Premium with 57kg at $2.10. That form should stack up and she looks a great chance to break the ice.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when led to the turn then faded 6th of 9 at Hawkesbury Super Mdn on October 9 over 1000m, 3 len behind Taxation with 56kg at $9. Nicely drawn and should give a good account.
