Race Tip
PICKY (2) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when third over 5f at Cranbourne. Likely to go forward from a nice draw. Best form puts her right in this. PRIDE OF SULLIVAN (3) is a progressive three-year-old filly who hasn't raced since finishing third over 5f at this track on September 30. Looks to be back in good order following a recent trial placing. Has never missed the frame when fresh from a lay-off in two starts. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Best figures should see her run well. TALK OF DAKOTA (8) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when eighth, beaten 7 lengths, over 5½f at Bendigo. Goes up a rung or two but she is worth another chance. WRITTEN BLIGH (11) knuckled down strongly to get within a neck of the winner in second last start over 5f at Sandown-Hillside when coming back from a break. Jordan Childs stays on. Must be respected.
