Race Tip

LUCKYIMWITHAIMEE (9) was safely held when ninth last time out over 5f at Orange, beaten 5 lengths. That followed a win at Tottenham at the previous outing. William A Stanley is a key engagement. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. BOWIE OF DUBAI (3) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when seventh, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 5f at Orange. Should be peaking now and looks the main danger. BOOROWA GIRL (8) improved sharply on her sixth two starts back at Bathurst with a win over 5f at Orange two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a nose after she came from a long way back on straightening. Looks well placed so expect another big run. OVERCLASSY (12) is back from a break of four-and-a-half months. Raced below par at her only appearance last prep when seventh over 5f at Queanbeyan. Lining up. For the first time for trainer roy l mccabe. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Deserves respect on best figures.
