Prime Trophies

Prize Money: $4,470

SUNSET VENDETTA (1) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only a neck from the winner Gold Smirch in second(22.85) at this track. Key chance in this line up. ELITE EMU (3) boasts a strong record this course with three wins and three minors from nine tries. Was out of placings last time (22.96) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 1.75 lengths. Can hit the frame with the right run. BULA (8) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (25.25) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Better than last start and can bounce back. HONG KONG PHOOEY (5) boasts a solid strike-rate over this trip.

Won two starts back over 400m at this track. Last start he finished 2nd over 400m at this track beaten a neck (22.85) behind Gold Smirch in a Grade 5 on May 1. Draw likely to suit. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 1, scoring four times. Go close.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (22.96) at this track over 400m. Won at her only start from this draw. Go close again.

Last start finished 6th over 400m at this track beaten 38 lengths (25.25) behind Sunset Estrella in a Grade 5 on April 17. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
