Race Tip

MEDICINAL (9) tackled the Blue Diamond Prelude (Fillies) over 5½f at Caulfield last time out when fresh from a lay-off and was beaten 3. 5 lengths into sixth by Streisand. This looks a more suitable assignment. BIG WIGS (1) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 2. 25 lengths from the winner in second over 5¼f at Morphettville. Open to sharp improvement and can get off the mark this time. RUDOLFINA (11) was well held in the Debutante Stakes won by Torture over 5f at Caulfield at her last appearance four-and-a-half months ago. Nicely placed and can feature on her best form. FINE SIERRA (7) finished third last start over 5½f at Geelong, beaten 3 lengths. Fitter for that run. Likely improver with top-three claims again.
