BEST BET - #9 - La Pittrice (BEST BET)
Good race here as well in the big field but I am keen to stick with La Pittrice who maps very well here, three weeks since scoring ever so impressively to break the maiden tag in her second start at the races when a $15 chance in a very good form race, beating off the likes of Golden Eagle and Secret Revolution there. Got a good run off a hot tempo there and should be right up on the speed, looks like she has some class and has heaps of upside still off that run. Keen to see what happens come race day.
THE DANGER - #1 - Uzziah
Uzziah gets well up in the weights now to 62.5kg off the back of a great first up win here over this distance when showing a really good change up of speed. Query is obviously if she can do it again with the big weight, but maps to get a nice run and will have a strong kick for them around the turn. Ratings are the best in the field, hence the weight.
VALUE BET - #5 - London
Interesting Runner who I think has a place chance is London who changed ownership to Jarred Austing from the Waller stable at the beginning of the year and has resumed to the races well with a win last time out second up at the Hawkesbury on a heavy track when taking over at the 350m and kicking clear of them. Looks to have returned in great order and will only be more of a threat third up now.
