G3 – 2000m – Turf
1 | Autumn Angel | Has won a G3 (2000m) three starts back. Won the G2 Kewney Stakes (1600m) by 0.2L at most recent start and the rise back to 2000m is ideal. Hard to beat. |
2 | Harlow Mist | Well beaten at last start when finished 6.1L 11 of 14 in G3 (1600m). Has been placed at the trip and is looking to the 2000m but needs to improve. |
3 | Waikato Girl | Will appreciate the increase in distance after finishing third over 1600m, beaten 1.2L, in G3 at last start. In the mix. |
4 | Noble Tess | Finished last at her most recent start over 1600m G3 at huge odds. Form doesn’t read good enough for this. |
5 | Heaven Bound | Still a maiden but has been placed four from seven. Finished second over 1800m, beaten 0.08L, at last start. Others much better. |
6 | Concello |
Has won two at a much lower level and would need massive improvement to win this. Won a restricted 1500m race at Hawkesbury at last start by 0.36L. |
7 | Private Legacy | Was okay in last race when fourth in G3 over 1600m at Kembla Grange. Will be coming home strong from well back. |
8 | Kind Words | Wasn’t fancied when beaten 4.8L at last start in G3 Kembla Grange Classic (1600m). Has been competitive at Group level so worth including. |
9 | Last Straw | Led but faded in a restricted 1500m race at Rosehill when finished in front of one runner, beaten 3.6L. Unlikely to threaten. |
10 | Global Pivot | Withdrawn |
11 | Ahuriri | Won a maiden two starts ago over 1890m at Newcastle and then went down narrowly at last start over 1800m at Hawkesbury. Likely improver at distance. |
12 | Good Banter |
Beaten 2.4L at last start in the Kembla Classic (1600m). Will benefit from the rise in distance and sure to be competitive. Has won one from six races. |
13 | Kenyada | A 1500m maiden winner who has been average at past two when tackling restricted races without success. Was beaten 2.76L over 1500m at last start. |
14 | Hippy Dreams | Has raced only three times for a win and a third. Won maiden at last start by 2.13L over 1600m at Wyong at short odds. Will have some interest at big odds. |
15 | Bush Girl | Yet to win from seven starts but has been placed three times. Was beaten 4.84L when third over 1850m at Newcastle at last start. Hard to mount a case. |
16 | Ocean Diva | Just beaten at Scone last start over 1700m on a soft track. Still a maiden from eight tries. Has been placed three times but this much too difficult. |
Reserves | ||
17 | Seafall | Won a 1500m Rosehill maiden two starts back at big odds by 0.18L. Was disappointing at next start when 4.3L eighth in G3 Kembla Grange Classic (1600m). Unlikely to threaten. |
18 | Bright Red | Comes out of a 1600m maiden win at Wyong to tackle this. Has been placed at 2000m on a heavy track. Worth following if strikes similar conditions. |
19 |
Miss Ghent |
Finished fifth, beaten 2.45L, over 1400m at Albury at last start. Big step in distance and is an unlikely challenger. |
20 | Dances With Hooves | Has won two at a much lower grade. Won last start over 1600m by 4.75L at Tamworth. This is a massive rise in class. |
21 | She’s Got Veuve | Won her maiden at ninth attempt two starts ago by 1.61L over 1600m at Newcastle. Followed up with 2.06L fourth at Gosford at next start over 1600m. Unlikely. |
22 | Halkis | Won maiden at Sapphire Coast by 0.24L over 1400m in February. Was second a most recent start, beaten 1L at Kembla Grange over 1600m. This is way too hard. |
