GOING: G

Musk Creek Farm Atlantic Jewel Stakes 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 11)   Rail: True Entire Circuit.  

Solid pace with Sassy Jenni finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. SILMARILLION (3) was nosed out to finish second to Ameena first up in Sydney, sticking on gamely when the backmarkers came. She maps ideally here and will be hard to get past. IMMORTAL STAR (2) fell in ahead of an unlucky Photograph here last time but is talented in her own right. Shinn sticks aboard and she looms as a major threat. SASSY JENNI (8) was third to Growing Empire before a spell which reads very well. SUGGESTED PLAY: Silmarillion on top.
