Race Tip

HEY NOW (8) has shown a lot of ability in two starts so far tackling stronger looking races than this. Finds a more realistic task and open to any amount of further progression rates a leading contender. LILAC LADY (15) posted a good 6L third at this track when last seen nearly seven months ago. Seems to relish better ground so will enjoy these conditions and could be primed for return. Key player. CASUAL WATER (4) performed below market expectations on recent debut representing top trainer. Clearly felt capable of better though so no surprise to see a much improved effort. Keep safe. FIRST ASCENT (7) placed three times in six starts so far. Certainly holds ability to break through should things fall right and each way backers are advised to look closely.
