---|---|---|---|---|
Insufficient early speed to generate more than a muddling tempo. AMREEKIYAH (7) progressive mare going nicely through her grades. Snagged back from the wide gate second up when a plugging fourth over 1400m at this track in the heavy conditions. Will relish the extra trip from the good gate and expected to go close. SISTER DAAE (8) holding her form this time in and the addition of blinkers and booking J Mac can see her go one better. Attacked the line strongly when second over 1400m here. Proven at the trip and shapes as the main danger. SACRED ROCKS (1) drifted back again with an improved showing, closing late to finish third over the 1400m at this track. Looking for this distance now and Braith Nock keeps the ride. Sure to be thereabouts. KINGSTON CHARM (5) up in grade today after finishing a disappointing eleventh over 1600m at Randwick in Midway grade. Capable on her day and desperate for a firmer surface. VIENNA VIXEN (3) comes up from Victoria with a handy record in this class. Can race closer from the draw and stays in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Amreekiyah and Sister Daae to fight it out.
