SELECTIONS: DELIGHTFUL REYNA (5), SO SKEPTICAL (2), WAR DAN PHOENIX (3), SUMMER KISS (1)
OVERVIEW: DELIGHTFUL REYNA (5) has shown some positive signs against some smart 2yos in her four-start career, the best of those a second last time out at Melton. She’s mixed her gait at various times and gives away maturity and experience, but from the astute stable she has to be considered.
SO SKEPTICAL (2) makes her debut here and local trainer Lisa Pitt has made a habit over the past month of progressing these from the trials to win under race conditions. The most recent trial against more seasoned types was okay, and this looks to be a suitable assignment to kick things off. WAR DAN PHOENIX (3) is on the back-up from Sunday night at Cranbourne. He’s still a maiden in 18 attempts but he’s shown some glimpses that he’s getting closer to a win. He has good gate speed to lob into a nice position. SUMMER KISS (1) is a former Sydneysider whose former stable has no doubt conditioned her well, and although her form doesn’t look flash, it has been in decent 2yo company, so she’s worth keeping safe.
BACK: DELIGHTFUL REYNA (5) – 1.5 units (win)
