OUI\u00a0OUI\u00a0OUI\u00a0(3)<\/strong> looks ready for longer now in search of her hat-trick.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The daughter to Yes\u00a0Yes\u00a0Yes\u00a0has set the bar to new heights this time in work, resuming a clear winner fresh at Newcastle last month, before finding a late gap midway down the straight here at Randwick two weeks\u00a0ago to prevail by just over half a length.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019s\u00a0shown an excellent turn of foot on each occasion and draws to do absolutely no work with Tom Sherry sticking. In a race that looks\u00a0to\u00a0lack\u00a0a bit of depth,\u00a0she\u2019s\u00a0the one to beat.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

SATIN STILETTO (9)<\/strong> has each-way claims if she gets a bit of luck from the gate early on.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Matthew Dale\u2019s mare was unlucky not to run a place on return at Rosehill late last month, checking across heels at the\u00a0300m\u00a0mark on her way to running fourth off a good break.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

They\u00a0probably went\u00a0a little\u00a0to\u00a0fast for her in the\u00a0early stages, so\u00a0she\u2019d\u00a0benefit\u00a0from more of a sit and sprint this time around. With a place to her name in a Highway here at\u00a0Randwick\u00a0the start prior,\u00a0she\u2019s\u00a0got good scope for improvement second-up with Rachel King on board.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Race 3 – SPELLING AT COOLMORE MT WHITE HANDICAP (1100 METRES) <\/div>\n
No. 6 Masvingo <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

Keen here on MASVINGO (6)<\/strong> second-up for Bjorn Baker.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This filly by\u00a0Zoustar\u00a0tried hard fresh in the Magic Millions at Wyong a couple of weeks ago, only finding clear air approaching the final furlong where she finished off fairly for third in behind\u00a0Paradoxium.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep in mind she was fresh off a nine-week break over\u00a01100m, a trip that may have been a little on the sharp side. That run should do wonders for her\u00a0though,\u00a0and\u00a0she\u2019s\u00a0drawn to get the gun run along the inside again with Rachel King taking over.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Race 4 – RACING AND SPORTS HANDICAP (1600 METRES) <\/div>\n
No. 5 Sun God <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div> \n <\/div> \n
\n

SUN GOD (5)<\/strong> has drawn to get the right run from a soft gate.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

We last saw this Chris Waller-trained gelding over\u00a01800m\u00a0a fortnight ago, a run that never really went to plan from a wide alley when\u00a0he was\u00a0interfered with early on and caught three-wide the trip.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In saying that, he\u00a0looked\u00a0the winner for the majority\u00a0before Pocketing got the better of him over the concluding stages, and\u00a0there\u2019s\u00a0a bit to like about him here back to the mile in his second run back from a four-week let-up.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Jockey Zac Lloyd has a real feel for him\u00a0now,\u00a0and this\u00a0doesn\u2019t\u00a0look much tougher.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Watch the market on SOUTHERN\u00a0HEIRESS\u00a0(11)<\/strong> at double-figure odds.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This Freedman-trained filly by\u00a0Snitzel\u00a0was\u00a0an\u00a0impressive\u00a0back to back\u00a0winner here in Sydney to start her career, bursting clear to win by 3.5 lengths on debut at Newcastle, before repeating the dose three weeks\u00a0later on\u00a0a Heavy 8 at Canterbury over further.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She wrapped up her winter prep at The Valley beaten 5.5 lengths in the Listed Atlantic\u00a0Jewel,\u00a0the tight turns never really suiting her racing style \u2013 not to mention racing on top of the ground.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019d benefit from a little juice\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0track on Saturday and is capable of sneaking into the\u00a0finish carrying only 54kg.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Anything\u00a0resembling\u00a0a wet track could really bring CHARLEROI (11)<\/strong> into calculations here over the mile.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A\u00a0lightly-raced\u00a0son to\u00a0Dundeel, this talented four-year-old has gone close in two recent runs, his latest seeing him finish three lengths off over\u00a01400m\u00a0after being held up on a couple of occasions down the straight.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He was up sharply\u00a0in trip\u00a0that day after competing over\u00a01100m\u00a0fresh at Hawkesbury, so there\u2019s still room for improvement with Dylan Gibbons boasting a solid strike rate for the\u00a0Dilmi stable.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

\n

First emergency ELLIPSIS (15)<\/strong> is a definite danger in this field thanks to some\u00a0early\u00a0scratching’s.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bjorn Baker\u2019s mare has been ultra consistent during her six-start career, missing the money only once alongside two wins.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By Written Tycoon, she resumed well to run second behind the airborne Caffe Florian at Canterbury a fortnight ago, hitting the front over the final\u00a0200m\u00a0before her condition gave way.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She\u2019s\u00a0untested over\u00a01200m, but fitter now and carrying only 55kg, she should be\u00a0very strong\u00a0in the finish if she can slot in\u00a0off the speed from the wide gate.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

SNACK BAR (2)<\/strong> is worth sticking with, even if he continues to torment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He was a good thing beaten two weeksa go in a similar race over the track and trip, the late tactics out wide likely costing him a win when narrowly beaten by Axius right on the line.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The change in rider with Dylan Gibbons taking over is the key to his chances on Saturday, particularly with only 1kg extra in the saddle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By All Too Hard, he went three-quarters of a length clear to win at Rosehill over shorter two runs back, following that effort up back here at Randwick on a soft track, where the three-wide sit in transit cost him\u00a0over the late stages.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He placed in his lone start over\u00a02000m\u00a0back in June and would\u00a0benefit\u00a0from a little sting out of the track\u00a0with Zac Lloyd getting his first crack in the saddle.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

APPLAUD (6)<\/strong> gets the\u00a0winkers\u00a0on for the first time and rates one of the key chances third-up.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Snowden-trained four-year-old by\u00a0Deep Field resumed in terrific order to win at good odds fresh at Kembla Grange, backing that effort up strongly at Rosehill where he was three-wide across heels over the late stages, chasing hard to grab third.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He\u2019s\u00a0had only 13 starts, but some of his best performances have come third-up. If he gets back around midfield and can find the right\u00a0lane\u00a0he\u2019ll\u00a0be very tough to hold out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
