Well,\nit\u2019s time for the ladies to try the long distances of the classics and we start\nhere today with the running of the Sydney Oaks. Terrific field of 3yo fillies\ngathered to see if they can stretch their brilliance to 12 furlongs in what\nwill be a stern test for many. The hopes and dreams of trainers will rest on\nthis race to see if their fillies are up to the riches to come. Some will\nconquer and some will fail so let\u2019s take a look at the field. The track is firm\nfor the meeting.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. 72121 \u2013 Mentoe<\/strong> (Galileo) Owned by woette2. \u2013\nJockey \u2013 R. Whisper 12\/1.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with good record of 6-2-2-0 and banking $80K. Another filly who has improved as the distances increase and she should relish this distance. Last start she won a 9.5F Allowance. Sat 7th<\/sup> around 12 lengths from the early lead. Moved to 6th<\/sup> around 7 lengths from them on the turn. Finished brilliantly the last furlong to win easily by over 2 lengths with an SP of 96. Prior to that she was 2nd<\/sup> in a 9F Allowance. Sat 5th<\/sup> around 10 lengths from the lead. Moved to 4th<\/sup> around 7 lengths off them on the turn. Ran home well the last furlong, beaten nearly 2 lengths with an SP of 92. Before that she won her maiden over 8.5F. Sat 10th<\/sup> around 7 lengths from the lead. Moved to 7th<\/sup> around 4 lengths off them on the turn. Finished powerfully the last furlong to win easily, by 2 lengths with an SP of 81. Only broke her maiden 3 starts ago and thrown in the deep end here. Think she can handle it and the distance looks ideal. Chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    2. 18651 \u2013 Promise From Me<\/strong> (Frankel) Owned by phillipj4 \u2013 Jockley \u2013 A. Jolly 8\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with overall record of 7-3-1-0 and banking $136k. This late blooming filly is just now coming in to her own as the distances increase. Last start she was an impressive winner of a 9.5F Allowance. Sat 5th<\/sup> around 6 lengths from the early lead. Took over by a head on the turn and raced clear the last furlong to win by 3 lengths with an SP of 101. Prior to that she was 5th<\/sup> in a 9F Allowance. Sat 9th<\/sup> around 8 lengths from the lead. Still 9th<\/sup> around 7 lengths off them on the turn and only plodded to the line, beaten 7 lengths with an SP of 87. Before that she was 6th<\/sup> in the Queen Bluffy Turf Juvenile Fillies 6F<\/strong>. Sat 7th<\/sup> around 5 lengths from the lead. Moved to 6th<\/sup> around 6 lengths off them on the turn and maintained that to the line, beaten just over 6 lengths with an SP of 78. Prior to that she was 8th<\/sup> in the G3 Miesque 7F<\/strong>. Sat 11th<\/sup> around 5 lengths from the lead. Moved to 8th<\/sup> on the turn and was steady to the line, beaten nearly 3 lengths with an SP of 87. Impressive last start and if she repeats that she should be in the finish. Distance should be fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. 17151 \u2013 Hearts of Mind<\/strong> (Hearts Cry) Owned by mrxrayz34. \u2013 Jockey \u2013 H. Artack 6\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with nice record of 7-5-0-0 and banking $204k. Breeding says no but anything is possible with these filles and they can certainly defy their breeding. Last start she won the Tough Seattle Turf Filly Route 9F<\/strong>. Sat 3rd<\/sup> around 3 lengths from the early lead. Still 3rd<\/sup> around 1.5 lengths from them on the turn but finished well the last furlong to win by a neck with an SP of 99. Prior to that she was 5th<\/sup> in the River Nicole Turf Filly Route 8.5F<\/strong>. Sat 3rd<\/sup> around 5 lengths from the lead. Still 3rd<\/sup> on the turn but over 5 lengths from them. Plodded the last furlong, beaten 4.5 lengths with an SP of 89. Before that she won the Irish Flame Turf Juvenile Fillies 8.5F.<\/strong> Sat 4th<\/sup> around 2.5 lengths from the lead. Moved to 2nd<\/sup> only \u00bd length from them on the turn. Raced clear the last furlong to win by nearly 2 lengths with an SP of 93. Prior to that she was 7th<\/sup> in the G2 Silver Spoon Juvenile 8F<\/strong>. Sat 4th<\/sup> around 3.5 lengths from the lead. Was 5th<\/sup> on the turn still 3 lengths from them. Faded the last furlong, beaten 5.5 lengths with an SP of 88. Solid record but this is a big step up. She will likely ride the pace but may struggle the last furlong. Chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    4. 23815 \u2013 Head Bangin<\/strong> (Headwater) Owned by hawkes \u2013 Jockey \u2013 M. Cameron 14\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with nice overall record of 10-3-3-1 and banking $170K. Her breeding suggests she will struggle but with these early 3yo fillies staying events brilliance comes to the fore. Last start she was 5th<\/sup> in the G3 Longest Walk 9F<\/strong>. Sat 8th<\/sup> around 10 lengths from the early lead. Moved to 8th<\/sup> on the turn still 8 lengths from them.

Prior to that she was 3rd<\/sup> in the URC Breeder\u2019s Championships \u2013 Filly Juvenile Turf 8F<\/strong>. Sat 14th<\/sup> around 8 lengths from the lead. Still 11th<\/sup> around 7 lengths from them on the turn and finished well, beaten just over 4 lengths with an SP of 84. Handled the 9.5F well two starts back and if she can get the extra distance she should be thereabouts. Chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    5. 35121 \u2013 Genie Harvest<\/strong> (Satono Aladdin) Owned by mrxrayz26 \u2013 Jockey \u2013 J. Wilson 10\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with nice overall record of 6-3-1-1 and banking $91K. 2nd<\/sup> of the stable\u2019s entries and the better chance I feel.

Prior to that she was 5th<\/sup> in an 8.5F Allowance. Sat 3rd<\/sup> around 4 lengths from the lead. Dropped back on the turn and stayed on okay, beaten just under 6 lengths with an SP of 79. This filly has improved as a 3yo and distance looks okay. Impressive last start and has to be a chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    6. 31342 \u2013 More Sarcasm<\/strong> (Symboli Kris S) Owned by home \u2013 Jockey \u2013 M. Humbo 8\/1. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly who has been consistent of late. Overall record 8-1-2-3 and banking $82K. Should handle the distance and her last start was very good.

    7. 26351 \u2013 Bronze Bomber<\/strong> (More Than Ready) Owned by desertdog0 \u2013 Jockey \u2013 T. Small 9\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with a nice overall record of 9-3-2-2 and banking $345k. She already has a win over the distance which will stand her in good stead here. Last start she won the G2 New Zealand Oaks 12F<\/strong>. Sat 10th<\/sup> around 13 lengths from the early lead.

She finished very well that day. Time was slow there and she will have to improve again but should be in the mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    8. 33111 \u2013 Blythe\u2019s a Star<\/strong> (Siyouni) Owned by texasace02 \u2013 Jockey \u2013 F. Gossett.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Lovel 3yo filly with great record of 6-4-0-2 and banking $137K. Racing best as the distances increase and has to be given a chance.

Sat 7th<\/sup> around 5.5 lengths from the lead. Finished well the last furlong, beaten a length with an SP of 89. Has won 3 on the bounce and obviously relishing the step up in distance each time. Her last win was very easy and has to be considered if she can stretch even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    9. 12313 \u2013 Woette\u2019s Gold<\/strong> (Dee Majesty) Owned by loisblack \u2013 Jockey \u2013 SL Ledwith 11\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly in good form of late and overall record of 7-2-1-3 and banking $118k. On breeding she should relish the step up in distance. Last start she was 3rd<\/sup> in the G3 Kewney 8F<\/strong>.

Anything is possible with this filly as she should enjoy the 12F of today\u2019s race. Knockout chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    10. 55121 \u2013 Drop Down The Well<\/strong> (Lemon Drop Kid) Owned by radley \u2013 Jockey \u2013 D. Evans 18\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    11. 9311 –Interrock<\/strong> (Fastnet Rock) Owned by lopic \u2013 Jockey \u2013 Q. Cassell 24\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo lightly raced filly with overall record 4-2-0-1 and banking $68k. Distance looks okay but huge step up here and likely to struggle. Last start she won a 9.5F Allowance. Sat 3rd<\/sup> only a \u00bd length from the early lead. Took over on the turn by a length and raced clear the last furlong to win by 3.5 lengths with an SP of 84.

    12. 18311 \u2013 Bubble Gum Machine<\/strong> (I Am Invincible) Owned by homemade \u2013 Jockey \u2013 N. Labreche 12\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with nice overall record of 8-3-1-2 and banking $130k. On breeding it would suggest she may struggle but with 3yo fillies their brilliance carries them a long way. Last start she won the Laura\u2019s Parade Turf Filly Route 8.5F<\/strong>. Sat 2nd<\/sup> early close to the early lead. Took over on the turn by nearly 2 lengths and stayed on well the last furlong to win by 1.5 lengths with an SP of 93. Prior to that she won a 9F Allowance on the Synthetic. Sat 2nd<\/sup> close to the early speed. Took over and opened a lead of 3.5 lengths on the turn. Stayed on strongly to win by 2 lengths with an SP of 87. Before that she was 3rd<\/sup> in a 7.5F Allowance. Sat 2nd<\/sup> close to the speed. Ran to them on the turn and only a neck away before fading the last furlong, beaten nearly 3 lengths with an SP of 85. Prior to that she was 8th<\/sup> in the URC Breeders Championships \u2013 Filly Juvenile Turf 8F behind Head Bangin who was 3rd<\/sup><\/strong>. Sat 10th<\/sup> around 5 lengths from the lead. Moved to 8th<\/sup> around 5 lengths from them on the turn before battling to the line, beaten nearly 6 lengths with an SP of 82. She would need to improve to win this and on breeding I would say no but perhaps a place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    13. 13522 \u2013 Opera Stars<\/strong> (T.M Opera O) Owned by strikerich \u2013 Jockey \u2013 L. Radzinski 10\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo filly with terrific record of 8-3-2-2 and banking $276k. Like many here she is trying the 12F for the first time. Breeding suggests she may struggle but with early 3yo events anything is possible. Last start she was 2nd<\/sup> in the G1 Vermont is 4 Lovers 9F<\/strong>. Sat 2nd<\/sup> only a length from the early lead. Took over on the turn and kicked clear by 2 lengths only to be run down late, beaten \u00bd a length with an SP of 102. Prior to that she was 2nd<\/sup> in an 8F Allowance. Led most of the way, opening a lead of 4 lengths on the turn. Only just nabbed on the line, beaten a head with an SP of 92. Before that she was 5th<\/sup> in a 6F Allowance. Again, tried to lead all the way but only a head clear on the turn. Faded the last furlong, beaten 3.5 lengths with an SP of 65. Prior to that she was 3rd<\/sup> in the G3 Winter Gin Special 8F<\/strong>. Sat 2nd<\/sup> around 1 length from the lead. Took over on the turn but faded late, beaten just over 3 lengths with an SP of 89. Possible leader in this and if she can get some cheap fractions in front, she may prove hard to run down. Chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    14. 26411 \u2013 Capricorn Banker<\/strong> (Dundeel) Owned by deyoto12 \u2013 Jockey \u2013 R. Dogs 13\/1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3yo lightly\nraced filly with record of 5-2-1-0 and banking $132k. As with most staying\nfillies she has taken time to mature but she has come to the fore as the\ndistances increased. Last start she won the G3 Penelope Cruz 10.5F<\/strong>. Sat\n6th<\/sup> around 4 lengths from the early lead. Moved to 2nd<\/sup>\naround 3 lengths from them on the turn. Finished well the last furlong to win\nby \u00be of a length with an SP of 97. Prior to that she won a 9.5F Allowance. Sat\n2nd<\/sup> around a length from the lead. Took over on the turn and raced\nclear the last furlong to win by just over a length with an SP of 90. Prior to\nthose runs she was trying to win her maiden and also tried the dirt\nunsuccessfully. She cracked her maiden in the allowance win. This is a big test\nfor her but should be okay with the added journey here. Loved her win LTO and a\nrepeat would see her in the finish. Chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Very difficult\nrace to handicap as so many unknowns for these fillies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    8. Blythe\u2019s a\nStar<\/strong> \u2013 Looked good winning last time and should\nrelish the extra trip. 5\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    7. Bronze\nBomber<\/strong> \u2013 Already a winner over the distance which\nmust hold her in good stead here. 9\/1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. Capricorn Banker<\/strong> \u2013 Nice win last start\nand think she will get the distance. Big chance. 13\/1<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
