G3 – 1400m – Turf

1

Too Darn Lizzie

Last two runs have produced a 2nd in the Listed Jim Moloney Stakes (1400m) and victory in the G2 Thousand Guineas Prelude (1400m) by 2L. Will give a good sight out in front.

2

Geegees Mistruth 

Fancied in the G2 Thousand Guineas Prelude (1400m) when finished 3rd, beaten 2.02L, after racing greenly while under pressure in the straight. Has been placed in all 7 starts.

3

Kuroyanagi

Consistent filly who ran a close 3rd in the G1 Blue Diamond (1200m) at Caulfield in February. Last start winner over 1200m, her third run back from a spell at Caulfield. Hasn’t ventured beyond 1200m which is the query.

4

I Am Velvet

Has won three of her four races, including over 1400m at Caulfield. Was only 1.1L of Kuroyanagi over 1200m, finishing 4th but raced ungenerously. Can be competitive if races cleanly.

5

Zeitung

Beaten 2L in the G2 Thousand Guineas Prelude (1400m) at her last start to place 2nd. She raced three-wide without cover throughout the race. Comes into it with a more economical ride.

6

Dominetta

Front-runner who could take some catching. Has raced three times for a win, 2nd and a 3rd.  Latest effort was a narrow second in the G3 Reginald Allen Quality (1400m). Consider.

7

Matisse

Had first try at 1400m in G2 Thousand Guineas Prelude (1400m)  at last start when 6th, beaten 3.19L. Has a maiden victory and two thirds in six career starts. Will get back and can finish strongly.

8

Supercilious

Has been tried once at 1400m for a 6.2L 3rd in a G3 in Morphettville Parks on a heavy track in July. Two runs back from a break, both at 1200m, have produced a 2nd and 3rd in Listed races. Improver.

9

Good Sort

Close up third in the G3 Reginald Allen Quality (1400m) at Randwick, beaten 0.49L. Was slow away and encountered a lot of interference in the run. Should appreciate the trip and is a place chance with some luck.

10

Lovelycut

Steps up to 1400m for the first time after two wins and a 2nd from past three starts. Worked home strongly from last to grab 2nd, beaten 0.46L, in the Listed Gothic Stakes (1200m). Rise in distance ideal.

11

Benagil

Won her first two starts and resumed in the G3 Scarborough Stakes (1200m) at Moonee Valley, finishing 8th. Was 2.17L 4th at latest run in G2 Thousand Guineas Prelude (1400m). Will need luck.

12

More Territories

Stepped up to 1400m at her last two races which includes a last start 3.42L 4th in Listed event at Rosehill. Was held up for a run between the 200m and 100m mark and was not fully tested. Needs luck.

13

Extremely Hardys

Had 4 trials before making a winning debut by 6.04L over 1200m at Canterbury on a heavy track. Was spelled and trialed twice before resuming with last start 1250m front-running win at Kensington by 0.44L. Talented.

14

Chewing Gum

Plenty of upside with a win and two minor placings from her three starts. This a step-up in class but she’ll appreciate the 1400m after her last start 2nd, beaten 0.25L, over 1200m when she was ridden back in the field and didn’t have best of luck.

15

Stage ‘N’ Screen

Withdrawn

16

Fluent

Big winner on debut on Ballarat synthetic track over 1000m in August, scoring by 3.5L after racing handy. Was beaten next start when fresh over 1100m at Bendigo. This is a big rise in class.

17

Jellicious

Still a maiden after three starts, but has been placed twice. Was beaten only 1.28L when finishing 5th in the G3 Reginald Allen Quality (1400m) when leading at latest run.
