Alexandra Park Race 10

SAMSUNG 2YO FILLIES MOBILE PACE

Stake: $15,000

RIVER (4) is a daughter of champion sire Bettor's Delight on debut for the powerhouse Mark & Nathan Purdon yard. Sure to be well educated so anticipating a bright start to her career. THE QUEENS GAMBIT (1) came from the back row for fourth when making her debut at Addington. Strips fitter and can improve with the aid of the ace draw. LINCOLN LINDA (3) is building towards a win having recorded a sequence of three top-three finishes, the latest a second from this barrier. Could break through. Debut placegetter SPIRIT OF TUPELO (2) rounds out the small field.

Good performance when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third behind Angelic Copy at this track over 1700m in a 2yo F on March 7 at $2.50. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second behind Angelic Copy at this track over 1700m in a 2yo F on March 21 at $1.90. Can make her presence felt.

Two-year-old filly by Bettor's Delight out of Lady Gilpin on debut for the Mark & Nathan Purdon yard. By a champion sire and from a leading stable so is sure to be popular with punters.
