RACE 4 No. 9 Lulu Express
Narrowly tipped out first up however showed the benefit of that run scoring in easy fashion last time out at the Gold Coast. She goes into tomorrow’s race in peak condition third up, strikes suitable wet ground and is likely to gain the run of the race for top jockey Ryan Maloney parked in behind the leaders early on. Plenty of ticks for her tomorrow.
RACE 5 No.3 Niccanova
Classy type who looks well suited tomorrow on what will be a rain affected track. Terrific run here last start racing wide all the way yet still hitting the line in good style late to beat all bar the winner Tversky who is in outstanding form. The step up to 1350m is ideal as is the wet ground, confident he can chase down the leader Fiery Heights.
RACE 8 No.5 Hingus Rose
Super consistent all campaign and gets in very well at the weights tomorrow with Steph Lacy claiming at least 1.5kg of her 3kg allowance which will bring the mare back to around 54kg, keep in mind she’s carried 57 & 59kg at her last two outings. She’ll push on and although not necessarily leading will be close enough to strike in the straight. Another who will relish the wet conditions.
