Race Tip

Group 1 placegetter OSCAR'S FORTUNE (10) scored last start by 0.6 lengths in the G3 Roma Cup at this track over 5½f. Has never missed the frame at this course, including three wins and two placings. Bold showing expected. Northerly Stakes winner AMELIA'S JEWEL (8) resumed over 5½f in the G3 Roma Cup at this track last time out and finished second, beaten 0.6 lengths. Solid winning chance in this line up. Manikato Stakes winner BELLA NIPOTINA (7) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second in the G1 TJ Smith Stakes at Randwick over 6f. Craig Williams who has scored on her four times retains the mount. Sure to be competitive. Group 2 winner KING OF SPARTA (2) is back after a break of nine weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 6f at Flemington. Has a solid when resuming record of two wins and three placings from six starts. Has found a suitable race and is worth including.
