Sportsbet More Places (Bm64)
Progressive Written Tycoon filly who has shown excellent development through her brief career. The combination of Blake Shinn and barrier 7 gives options in running.
Impressive debut winner who showed natural speed and professional racing manners. The time was strong relative to the day and she appears to have natural talent. Wide barrier is offset by early speed and should be able to cross and settle prominently.
Consistent performer who has shown ability at this level previously. Well drawn to get a perfect run in transit and should be ready to run well fresh. Previous form around similar horses gives confidence she can measure up.
Represents excellent each-way value given her strong form through similar grades. Will appreciate a genuine tempo and has shown ability to finish strongly. The wide barrier is a concern but she maps to get back and run on strongly.
