Race Tip

STRATIFIED (1) didn't do a bad job when second last start after being in the firing line on the turn over 5½f at Narromine, beaten 1.2 lengths. That followed a win at Warren the start prior. Goes up a rung or two but he is capable of running a bold race. CHESTIME (10) returned from a lay-off two-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 5 lengths into seventh over 6½f at Scone. Facing a tougher assignment but she is fitter and worth serious consideration. SHAQUILA (4) sped across from a poor gate to lead last time over 6½f at Narromine but dropped out of it in the run home. Should be prominent from the outset. Should be involved in the finish. GIRRAWHEEN (9) finished second last time over 5f at Scone when resuming from a lay-off, beaten a head. Must raise the bar but she has the ability to test this field.
