GOING: S(6)

LADBROKES KILCOY CUP SUNDAY 24TH AUGUST Fillies & Mares RATINGS BAND 0 - 58 Handicap 1200m

Track: Soft 6     Rail: True.  

War Too All and Flick should set a strong gallop. MORGANITE (3) hails from the Tony Gollan stable and has been racing well in the country this prep. She was third at Dalby nearly 5 weeks ago, and her trainer seldom treks to this track without picking up the main prize money. Hard to beat. HI JULES (2) made some solid progress last prep and was second here in her last run before having a spell. She wants a wet track, and with a strong record fresh up, she will be hard to hold out. DASHING HOPE (7) wasn't far off the mark at the Sunshine Coast last start and has to be included in the main hopes. SPIRIT OF STORM (4) can improve back in grade and appears the best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Morganite each way.
