RACE TWO
MIGHTY MONTANA (6) has the wide gate to overcome but with limited early speed to his inside, he can look to get in the action early. Stripping fitter for 1 run back from a break, that was a tough ru when circling the field early from a 2nd line draw and working in the run. A 2YO winner, he can look to open his 3YO term.
FLIPPA PENNY (3) kicked through and looked to take them all the way at AP 2 starts back and after turning for home there wasn’t much in the tank when finishing mid-field behind HOT DOGMA. Last start she went back to find position and that ended her chances. In this field she can look to atone.
LIZ AU BETTY (1) looked to make the most of the good draw here 2 starts back and after leading throughout couldn’t see it out. Forget her last start in a stronger race on the grass at Warwick, she is a smart beginner that can look to make the most of the draw advantage.
NICKY MATTGREGOR (8) struggled at AP 2 starts back when finding position too far back in the pack. 3 starts back she was within 3m of VANTO HANOVER in a Gold Pot Final and last week settled in the 1 x 1 when 1m from SKYLARHAIN. With even luck in transit she has podium claims.
