Wentworth Park Race 6

Sue Barton Memorial Cup

Prize Money: $10,500

TAORMINA (8) has some solid form under her belt and proved too classy last time to win by 6 lengths at this track in a handy 29.41 beating Screeching. Expected to go well again. MY MONROE (1) had been racing well with a NG win three back then placed next time before missing the frame latest at Grafton. Can improve sharply here. BONUS ETHICS (2) has a strong record this journey with five wins and a minor from nine starts. Below best last time at this track (30.36) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 10 length fifth. Among the main chances. FERNESS (3) is worth including after a top-three finish as favourite most recently.

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning three on end before placing two back. Rates strongly and can return to winning form.

Won over this track and trip. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 4/5 on June 5 over 520m at this track behind Zipping Grinch beaten 10 lengths (30.36). Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this box. Sure to go well.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Richmond over 401m. Last start finished 3rd on June 18 over 401m at Richmond behind Flash Liza beaten 5 lengths (23.11) in a Grade 4/5. Has clocked a scorching 29.46 here at this trip. Can give a great sight.

Good effort to win last start by a neck over 520m at this track in a handy (30.20), beating Go Lani. Will find this a bit tougher, others have better credentials.

Most recent effort finished 4th over 520m at this track beaten 2.25 lengths (30.50) behind Jo John John in a Mix 2/3 on June 21. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Worth including.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 520m in 29.75 last start, beating Laura Keeping. Can measure up again with the right run.
