TENNANT CREEK   17 May 2025
 
GOING: G

A J Couriers and Haulage Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: Good     Rail: True.  

Moderate tempo headed by Sabie Falls. SABIE FALLS (3) raced greenly in the final straight at Alice Springs last start after finishing third there before that. The blinkers are back on, which should help her focus, and with Danielle Hirini in the saddle this time, she will be hard to hold out in a modest maiden field. AUSSIE JAWSIE (4) finished runner-up on debut at Darwin in the spring and is resuming from a spell that would have done her the world of good. She has fewer convictions than most in this, and is expected to make a bright start to this campaign. Use the market as your best guide. STELLA BYSTARLIGHT (6) has found some form since shifting from Victoria earlier in the year. She has the advantage of the pole position and can get the job done this time. LADY MAGNET (2) needed his first run back from a spell when making his Northern Territory debut at Darwin 4 weeks ago. He strips fitter, and can improve sharply. Each way. BRUT STAR (1) has only had 2 well-spaced starts this season. Watch closely. SUGGESTED PLAY: Sabie Falls each-way.
