Race 1: RUTHLESS SUCCESS (6, Samantha Ottley), mob. 1950m:  “Broke early on Tuesday but can get out of the mobile alright. If she stays handy, could be an outside place chance.”

 

 

Race 3: KOWHAI WHIZ (17, Samantha Ottley), 2, 20m, 2400m std: “Finished well on Tuesday but not easy off 20m in a strong field again, so looking for luck.”

 

 

Race 10: PERISSA (5, Samantha Ottley), mob. 1950m: “She’s racing in foal but its a strong mares field so will need everything in her favour.”

 

 

Race 12: REAL TORQUE (9, Samantha Ottley) & ARIADNE LAVRA (SCR), mob. 2600m: “Real Torque ran out of the gate good then after crossing and ending up four back, ran on very good on Tuesday for her second. Going to be very hard from the wide draw, especially with Jack’s Legend (third in the Sires Stakes 3YO Final), drawn inside her.”
