Doomben Race 6

Sky Racing Hcp (C5)

Prize Money: $38,000

NAILS MURPHY (1) saves his best form for this mile journey remarkably only missing a drum once in 13 attempts. Racing high on confidence of late and should be right there when the judge calls a halt. LARIDAE (9) goes well for hoop Baker who has two wins and two placings from six steers and again gets the benefit of her claim. Expected to feature in the finish. SMART AS SMART (5) returned in good order with a solid victory here and winning rider Bayliss sticks in the stirrups. Can go right on with the job now. RETAINER (8) has won three of her past four and it's hard to knock mares in form. In the mix. I'M HEROIC (4) looks close to a win following a sound third over 1600m at Eagle Farm, beaten 0.9 lengths. Include.

Comes off a 46 day let-up. Last start 3rd of 10 at Eagle Farm Hcp on February 28 over 1600m, slow going 2.25 len behind Demon Darb carrying 52.5kg at $3. The run before that made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Eagle Farm Bm85 on February 14 over 1600m, slow going head behind Noble Conqueror carrying 59kg at $3.90. Sure to go well.

The run before that won by a long-neck at this track Bm70 March 4 over 1640m defeating Rock Ya with 53.5kg at $2.80. Shapes as a top chance on recent form.
