Schillaci At Stud

Stake: $11,047

DR. WILL (1) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and two minors from six tries. Placed last time (24.51) at Sale in a Free For All, finishing second and beaten a head. With a clean break looks hard to beat. ULTIMATE WARRIOR (7) was below best at his last start when 7th at The Meadows following a win (30.21) there two back. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Better than last start and can bounce back. GIACOMO (6) goes very well this course and distance starting 18 times for eight wins and three minors. Hit the frame latest (30.54) when third at The Meadows in a Grade 5. Looks a key chance on best figures. ZIPPING SIGRID (2) has been in the frame at her last two runs, most recently when third (30.53) in a Grade 5 over 525m at The Meadows.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 4 length third over 525m The Meadows in 30.53. Comes through a good form race. Looks a definite chance.

Comments

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (29.86) at this track over 515m. Should be around the mark.

Won two starts back when well in the market at The Meadows over 525m. Last start finished last on July 11 over 525m at The Meadows behind Paw Damon beaten 15 lengths (31.05) in a Free For All. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.
