We see the 4yo and up mares, take to the track in the 10<SUP>th<\/SUP> race of the day in what should be an interesting race. Over 6.5F on turf, I think the winning horse will need to be hitting a Sp# of over 100 to take the feature out.

She\u2019s won 5 from 6 and placed once, which was last start when she stepped up to stakes level. Most of her racing has been over more than 7F, so we can only hope she is not run off her legs here.

She\u2019s raced in much better class than this, and is well traveled. Another horse dropping back from her usual distance today, this could be a concern. Hardly ever out of the placings, expect her to be hot on the tails of the leaders.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">PP5: <STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">FIT OF JOY <\/SPAN><\/STRONG><STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold\">7\/1 <o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">A very well breed Sadler\u2019s Wells mare, who\u2019s form has just tapered a bit of late.

She beat a small field last start by 2 \u00bd lengths, and was not far away in the Castle Point Stakes G2 before that. Has been recording some handy Sp# too. Look for her to be about midfield and running into it at the top of the straight. I\u2019d think trainer <I style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\">lukebarn<\/I>, would be fairly confident of her chances today.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">PP7: <STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">STARINSKY <\/SPAN><\/STRONG><STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold\">11\/1 <o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">Starinsky<\/SPAN><\/B><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\"> is going to need to improve on recent racing to be in with show today. She hasn\u2019t broken 100 in her last 8 starts and has even gone down as far as low 80\u2019s. Her run last start was an improved effort, going head to head for the lead, only to fade in the last furlong. My pay for trainer <I style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\">txbred<\/I> to give jockey L Ward ( 80 &#8211; 9 &#8211; 11 &#8211; 5 &#8211; 11% ), instructions to ride the mare a little further back today, and see if she can get home rather than fatigue in the last bit.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\"><o:p>\u00a0<\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">PP8: <STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">GONE DEEP <\/SPAN><\/STRONG><STRONG><SPAN style=\"FONT-WEIGHT: normal; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold\">9\/2 <o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/STRONG><\/SPAN><\/P><P class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"><SPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Century Gothic'\">This mare has been switching tracks between dirt and turf in recent outings. Although her form is good on both, she is yet to break through on the turf. Punters are betting the today is the day, and im not willing to say otherwise. Good form and been racing in better class.

When you find yourself in a situation like this it is best to go with the horse with form on the board. <B style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal\">Chateau Shy Girl<\/B> is an up and coming type, and looks to have some improvement yet. Ran a bold race at big odds last start in her first try at stakes level. Trainer <I style=\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal\">theoldguy<\/I>, would be very happy with her progress and is expecting her to improve again today. At odds of 9\/1, its must be very tempting to put a couple of thousand sim bucks aside for this horse.<o:p><\/o:p><\/SPAN><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chateau Shy Girl, up and comer of the future<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":458,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4243","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4243","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/458"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=4243"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4243\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=4243"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=4243"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=4243"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
