Race Tip

APOLLO RIDGE (2) finished second when resuming at Kembla Grange then couldn't repeat the dose last time when fifth at Newcastle over 4½f when beaten 2. 75 lengths. Has good early pace. Looks a great chance to break through. CUESTA (9) turned in a eye-catching run over 5f at Orange last start when she got back but wound up hard to finish a close second. Expected to measure up. SHAKESPEARE'S GIRL (14) is a three-start maiden who finished 12th after being in the firing line on the corner at her most recent outing over 7f at Hawkesbury. Solid top-three chance on her best figures. BARKING MAD (8) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 3 lengths back in seventh over 7f at Warwick Farm. Finds the right race and is worth consideration.
