SHAY BRENNAN CONSTRUCTIONS ROMANTIC DREAM - 2YO PLATE 1000m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: True.  

Tricky one to map with a large contingent of unraced runners but expect plenty of early pressure. INCANTRESS (5) had no luck from the wide gate on debut before making ground late when fifth over 1100m at Gosford on April 10. This is much easier and Dylan Gibbons keeps the ride. TA SET NEFERU (12) American Pharaoh filly resuming after being outclassed on debut when seventh over 1100m at Canterbury four months ago. Further improved now and since placed in a recent 1000m trial at Scone. Expected to be strong late. KERMALICIOUS (6) two-year-old filly by Kermadec out of Rakitno on debut for the Kris Lees yard. Had three trials in readiness for this and must be kept safe from the soft gate. BODY OF VENUS (4) resuming after being kept safe on debut when a tiring sixth over 900m at Newcastle on November 26. Fitted with two solid trials and expected to play a leading role. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 5,12,6,4.
