ENTAIN/NZB INSURANCE PEARL SERIES 1300m Track: SOFT 6 True |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Hot Mama, Keeping Time and Prestissimo all possess good speed. RACE ACE (1) has found it hard to win another race in the past, and is resuming from a spell that would have done her the world of good. She looked in good condition when winning the latest of 3 trials, and with the advantage of the pole position, she can take this out. HOT MAMA (5) made progress during her initial prep, which included a win. She was close up in a recent trial, and is expected to be very competitive fresh up. SHAMELESS STAR (6) followed up her deserved maiden win at Waverley with a narrow defeat there 2 weeks ago, finishing third by half a length. She is in a good space and should go close to taking this out. Follow your money. JUNGLE JANE (2) proved to be a handy mare last season, and she looks to be on track for another good campaign after winning a recent Foxton trials last month. Bruno Queiroz will give her every chance from the saddle fresh up. SUNSHINE ALE (3) is a progressive mare who is more than capable of taking this out fresh up. Watch the market moves. SUGGESTED PLAY: Race Ace is the one for us.
