Northam Race 1

Groundhog Day @ Northam Mdn

Prize Money: $25,000

ALABAMA ELEGANCE (4) just felt the pinch late first-up over 1100m at Kalgoorlie when going under as favourite. She'll be fitter for that run and the 3kg claim of Cooper comes in handy. Expecting her to make her own luck up on the speed and with the added fitness now, she'll be very hard to run down. SCENIC GEORGE (1) didn't come up last campaign after trialling well leading into his campaign. He's trialled well again coming into this and he still has plenty of upside as a 3YO. Sting out of the track would be a bonus and he can resume on a successful note. TALKAWAY (5) showed good signs in her debut campaign and was only 1.6L off the winner at her last start before a spell. She is expected to be better over further, but she moved well at the trials coming in and she can play a major role. SETAGAYA (7) was very good in her first campaign and the recent trial suggests she can make an impression on resumption. ROYAL DEFENSE (2) is next best.

At the latest run second last in a small field at Pinjarra Scarpside 3yo 0Mwly on May 28 over 1000m, 5 len behind Art Session with 55kg at $31. The race before that led to the turn then faded 5th of 14 at Pinjarra 3yo Mdn on May 22 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Order Online carrying 57kg at $51. Might struggle again.
