|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo from Angel Ladder, Secret Sort and Da Snoop Dog battling for the lead in a high-pressure contest. The $160,000 Listed Mick Dittman Plate. AKAYSHA (5) is a consistent conveyance who is yet to miss the top-five in nine career starts to date and has been plying her trade in harder races down south. Drawn to get a cosy run in transit from gate two and looks very hard to toss against this line-up. The well-related SYLPH (8) (half to G1 winner Booker) is still a maiden but certainly hasn't disgraced herself in seven consistent efforts so far. Revved up for this with a recent trial placing and can run a big race while fresh. EARN TO BURN (1) was a touch disappointing last time out but the form prior was good enough for a race of this nature. Worth another chance. MILITARY TYCOON (6) wasn't too far away in Listed company at the latest outing and must be respected out of the Maher yard. In the mix. DESANTO (13) is a last-start winner who shouldn't be slept on. SUGGESTED PLAY: Akaysha to win.
