Fillies and mares, 3 years old and up <\/P>
Record: 15-9-1-2 Her last run was by far and away the best of her career with a massive 111 speed over the mile in the G1 The Last Woman.\u00a0 Her only other top 3 result in graded company was way back in August of 2009 where she ran a third place finish. After trying her at longer distances putting her back to the mile in her last run was a stroke of brilliance as it looks like the trainer has found her distance.\u00a0 At 9\/1 odds, repeat that last run and you should have another win on the boards. Record: 26-7-4-2 Looks good and in form but I think the distance is going to be a little short for her.\u00a0 Wanting more last time out and same again in her prior race.\u00a0 She has won at this level over the mile in July this year with a big speed of 111 and will have to repeat that run to take this out today.\u00a0 She has had one run recently at the 9furlong mark where she couldn’t run it out but I’d give her another try at a longer route distance. Record: 14-9-1-2 After an excellent run in the first part of this year which included 4 wins in a row at G1 level all over the mile. Was thrown into longer to try and push out her distance but she didn’t like it at all and she was back at the mile range last time out in the G2 New Zealand 1000 Dark Beers for yet another win.\u00a0 This is pretty much her distance and she looks every bit as good as when she was winning earlier in the year.\u00a0 Will go close if not win this one. Record: 15-4-3-1 Not really in the same class as these and certainly not good enough for a G1 race.\u00a0 Could run the mile out in Allowance company but lost her way over 7.5 furlongs at Stakes level and her last run in a G2 well she was just never in it although running 2nd for much of the race.\u00a0 Can’t see her doing anything miraculous here.\u00a0 Odds are warranted. Record: 22-9-9-2 Has run some big speeds including a 110 in allowance company over 8.5 furlongs back in May for the win.\u00a0 Her last win was actually her last run where she won over the mile in a very small field of 4 runners at Allowance level.\u00a0 Still, this looks way way harder for her and there are certainly more than a handful of runners to beat.\u00a0 Will be up against it here.\u00a0 Will be doing well if she can finish midfield. Record: 16-6-5-2 Has shown she has some pace with a 112 speed rating in a large field over 9 furlongs in the G2 The Jersey City only 2 runs back.\u00a0 She won that with some ease.\u00a0 Pushed out to 10 furlongs last time she didn’t have enough to finish strongly.\u00a0 Back to the mile here as well as up a grade.\u00a0 Has a chance – top 3 finish probably. Maybe. Record: 13-8-4-1 The favourite here and apart from some consistent good form, is most likely due to her run over 8.5 furlongs 2 runs back where she posted a 113 speed rating for the win.\u00a0 Debuted at G1 level here today with her only other Graded run last time out over the mile where she ran a 108 at G3 company for the win.\u00a0 Certainly has the consistency and form to win this one. Record: 24-5-7-4 Hasn’t got a chance here I don’t believe and not because she can’t run or can’t match the class of these runners. Simply because it looks too short for her.\u00a0 The horse has been crying out for some more distance most notably in her last couple of runs and as a trainer you just have to sit up and take notice.\u00a0 Push her out to 10 furlongs and she will run wonders.\u00a0 At this level. Record: 13-6-1-3 Another for which this race will probably be too short.\u00a0 Did win over the mile in August in Allowance company but since then has been wanting more distance.\u00a0 Best recent run was a 3rd place finish in the G1 Queen Ascot Stakes over the mile.\u00a0 Sort of held her distance from the winner that run but I’d still push her out.\u00a0 What do I know though… Record: 15-4-6-1 This race is full of runners that to me look like they want longer than the mile.\u00a0 While this one has been running over the 9 furlongs in her last 2 runs she has not really been closing that last stretch to the line so putting her back to the mile here hopefully will let her finish strongly across the line.\u00a0 Big chance in my book here to finish top 3 or better.\u00a0 Win in other words! Record: 15-5-2-3 In form and consistent.\u00a0 In fact so consistent has been posting a win then a 4th place finish, a win then a 4th place finish.\u00a0 Last run was a win.\u00a0 So I predict she will finish 4th today. Based on nothing but her form and experience.\u00a0 Course I know nothing and Im just being funny but what if she did run 4th again?\u00a0 Freaky?\u00a0 Probably…\u00a0 Good chance regardless here.
