Race Tip

BONJOY (3) scored by a head when resuming last start in the LR Bunbury Stakes over 7f after she gave away a big start. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from three starts. A bold showing is expected. ELITE MISSILE (9) settled well back last time out then found the line strongly to finish 1. 75 lengths away in sixth over 7f in the LR Bunbury Stakes. Certain to be winding up strongly. ESSENTRIC NATURE (10) drifted well back then came with a powerful run to finish 2. 75 lengths from the winner in second when resuming last start over 7f at Bunbury. Will find this much tougher but looks up to the task. FAST FLICKER (5) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest offering a second, beaten a head, over 7f in the LR Bunbury Stakes. Is among the better hopes.
