Race Tip

DUCK EGG BLUE (11) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 6f at Kembla Grange. Blinkers go on. Looks a top chance. LULO LINK (12) is a three-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 3.5 lengths when fourth over 6f at Kembla Grange. Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. MONTIGO BAY (6) is a five-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 0.7 lengths when fourth over 5½f at this track. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. BLUE TONGUE (3) resumes from a lay-off of four-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 7f at Newcastle. Has had the benefit of two trials leading into this. Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.
