GOING: N

LADBROKES BLACKBOOK PACE (SKY 1) 2230m

Track: GOOD      

ALORA (5) saluted two runs back then registered an effortless win last start, scoring by 9 metres over 2230m at this track. Won't find this any harder, and she can go right on with the job. SUNSTAR (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 9 metres from the winner in second over 2230m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Leading hope based on recent form. THATS ART (1) is a consistent performer with three top-three finishes on the trot. Only needs things to fall its way, and the good recent form can convert to a well-deserved win. BIG BLACK BETTY (8) must be respected after scoring last start by 3.5 metres at this track over 2230m. Each way value in an even lineup.

Solid performance when beaten by 2.5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Beaudiene Rocknroll at this track over 1800m in a NR 48 to 57 GROUP on April 5 at $2.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 9 m finishing third behind Alora at this track over 2230m in a 5yo+ NR 47 to 54 GROUP on April 19 at $13. Deserves a win and gets its chance from an inside draw.

Seven-year-old mare showed improvement last start. Won by 1.75 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr6) held up early, at this track (2:51.00) beating Summerdays in 5yo+ NR 47 to 54 GROUP on April 19 at $3.30 at the bell was 5th-7.6. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fifth after being driven well back, behind Big Black Betty at this track over 2230m in a NR 47 to 54 on April 14 at $12. Hard to have in this line-up.
