Race 8

Prize Money: $682

COOLEMORE POPPY (5) improved her time on first attempt here at the trip with a 2.25 lengths third in 16.49 latest. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. BLUE ROBIN (3) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a close-up second then scored by 1.75 lengths in a D5 last time at this track over 270m (16.63). Goes up a level but key runner based on recent form. CHOICES BEV (1) was a strong course and distance winner last time, claiming a D5 in a powerful 16.46 and a new PB here. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. SPIFFING (6) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 270m at this track. Can take this out on the back of that sound recent effort.
