Race Tip

THINKINGNINTYNINE (2) finished 7 lengths back in sixth over 1m1f at Clare last time out after a gutsy win the start prior. Should be prominent from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. FIORA BLUE (3) had a bit on her rivals last time out, scoring an impressive 2 lengths maiden win over 1m2 1/2f at Gawler. Re-unites with Teagan Voorham who was on board last start. Capable of making it two on the trot. SANDPIPER (5) travelled in a rearwards position and didn't fire over 2m at Echuca last time out when in the market. That followed a good third the run before. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TAKE A PICK (1) was out of the money two runs back when fresh from a lay-off then again missed the frame last start over 1m1f at Clare, beaten 13 lengths into ninth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
