Bathurst Race 7

Alabar Farms Gold Tiara Silver Consolation

Prize Money: $15,300

MAC TILLY (8) was in the market in her Gold Tiara heat last week but she broke in the score up and lost her chance. Nice effort to place on debut at Wagga prior. Draws wide but she is up to winning this with manners. REASON TO BE HAPPY (7) was runner-up on debut at this circuit and distance then was in the market when fifth in her Tiara heat. Draws wider than in both of those attempts but this looks a suitable assignment. JEWEL REASON (2) draws much better than last week and had kicked off her career with a placing in Brisbane prior. Should get her chance from this barrier. KISS BEFORE TWELVE (1) came from much wider for fifth on debut but is better served by this barrier and is open to improvement.

Two-year-old filly lining up for the second time. At debut was well back in the run when 5th (Fr6) over 1730m at this track, beaten 35 m by Birdsong (2:03.80) in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $41. Nicely drawn this time and can improve.
