Prize Money: $3,315

MAURA FIGGIS (1) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with three wins and a placing from five tries. Below best last time at Wentworth Park (30.50) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fifth. Has the ability and should feature. RITZA KRIS (7) finished in the minors last start over the 515m at this track but ran a solid 29.68 last start. Fast run latest and rates a key player again. BLUE LINKIN (4) had the drop on the lead early on but could only manage third, beaten 2.5 lengths (29.76) at this track in a Grade 4/5 over 515m. Expected to feature again. IRINKA LINDSAY (6) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can bounce back.

Comments

Well supported last time and rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but had to settle for the minor money, finishing a 1.5 lengths second (29.68) over 515m at this track. Should be right in the finish.
