Verdict

DAY ONE (5) is building a good record here. Was a sound 4th in the LR Gingernuts Salver at 1 5/16m here in January and capitalised on the perfect trip to score over 6 ½f here last month. Take beating again. WAR QUEEN (9) was up to open company when a mile back early but charged home to be beaten 2.6L 9th behind Top Shelf here when fresh. Goo record 2nd-up. Improver. AKSIL (6) another that got well back when fresh and ran on gamely for a 2L 3rd at Hastings. Has won here before. SUPER FLY (1) was in great form late last prep winning over 1m and 1 5/16m here. Has won 1st-up before and can add some value. HIDDEN ACHIEVEMENT (8) beaten 2.5L 4th in the Hawkesbury Guineas 4 starts back for Chris Waller. Got back and wound up late in NZ debut at Hastings. Improver.

Tack

Synthetic Surface

A racing surface comprised of silica sand and fibers, such as recycled carpet or spandex. The mixture is then sealed with wax.
