RACING TODAY FM 89 DIVIDED HANDICAP 1160m Track: GOOD Clear (Max: 18) |

---|---|---|---|---|
Several of these have terrific gate speed so the pressure will be on from the outset. WHAT A LUCY (10) hails from the in-form Lucky Houdalakis stable. She has top consistent form lines to her credit and showed good speed over 1000m last time out before finishing runner-up. She gets the services of 4 kilo claiming apprentice Nirvan Nastili which will assist her cause. She will be hard to peg back again. LAW OF SUCCESS (4) finished fourth and not far behind the top pick last time. She will be suited by the extra journey on offer here and is expected to give another good account of herself. ON CUE (8) finished a close-up fifth behind the top pick in the race referred to above. She probably should have finished even closer last time out and is well worth each-way consideration in this. WINGS WITHIN ME (3) has not been too far away lately. She finished second in her only attempt here over this distance and with a drop in class she cannot be ignored.
