GOING:

HRNSW GUARANTEED LADYSHIP PACE 1720m

Track: GOOD      

FORESIGHT (1) took advantage of this barrier when she led and kept going at her most recent outing, scoring by 2.8 metres at this circuit and distance. She could prove hard to catch again. LEAVE IT TO LUCY (3) draws well and could be close to a win having placed in two of her last three outings here. KATES VIRTUE (9) disappointed last time but had recorded back-to-back seconds here prior, one of them from a similar draw to this. Worth another chance. BETTING STAR (7) has finished second in her last two appearances at this venue, the latest when chasing Foresight home. Gets the same barrier again so include.
