TAB 2024 CAPRICORNIA YEARLING SALE CLASSIC QTIS 2YO PLATE 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 5.75).  

Margot Barbie can lead Chimera Magic with Rocky Rich pushing over. Tricky. SILVER GLITTER (10) was a big Maiden winner first-up and then was heavily backed missing a lip this grade at Townsville. Fitter and expect her to see out the longer sprint. Gets the nod. MARGOT BARBIE (5) won that contest leading all the way. She's likely to control the race and with a measured ride should see it out. ROCKY RICH (2) won a Maiden at Toowoomba on debut as expected over 1100m. As with the above, he has an awkward barrier but won't have to improve much to make the finish. VICTORY STATEMENT (12) brings good form from the poly. She's a chance if that translates to the turf and Byrne sticks in the saddle. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Silver Glitter.
