Stake: -

SAY YOUR PRAYERS (1) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start fourth (23.41) at this track. Reliable out of the boxes and should take advantage of the inside draw. Has ability and can bounce back. HELLO CINDY LOU (4) had to overcome a collision with another runner and could manage only a distant eighth (18.14) in a Grade 5 over 324m at Richmond Straight. Solid beginner and with a good start can clear the tricky draw. Can do much better this time. GOLDEN BOOK (6) was out of the placings last time when fifth at this track (23.56) but did record second best time of the card when winning three back. Got the money at her only try from this box. Leading chance. IN THE SKY (7) will give backers a sight.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 4th on July 25 over 401m at this track behind By The Book beaten 7 lengths (23.41) in a Grade 5. Recorded two placings in a row prior to the latest effort. Worth another chance.

Has finished last in her last couple of starts, most recently at Dapto over 297m. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on her best form.

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and tends to spot them a start in her races, Last start finished seventh over 324m at Richmond Straight, beaten 7 lengths. Happy enough to avoid.

Missed the frame last start when eighth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Looks a key chance here on best and given another chance.

Goes well at this track and trip. Most recent effort finished last in a Grade 5 on July 12 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Raging Saige beaten 13 lengths (30.92). Ignore last start. Has ability and can feature in the finish.
