Race Tip

MACHINE GUN GRACIE (4) produced a good effort last start over this journey in the G3 WA Oaks at this track, scoring by 3.5 lengths. Has a terrific record here with two wins and one placing from three starts. Likely to feature. SAIL SESSION (1) scored last start by 0.7 lengths in the LR Melvista Stakes at this track over 1m3f. Yet to miss the placings here in an excellent record which boasts four wins and one placing. Must be respected. FUNCHAL (6) fought on well for second last start over 1m4f in the G3 WA Oaks at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. William Pike has registered two minor placings when on board. Capable of running a bold race. MAXWHOOSHTAPIN (2) wound up strongly at the end of 1m3f in the LR Melvista Stakes at this track last time out, finishing 0.7 lengths away in second. Stiffer assignment here but is ready for the challenge.
