Race Tip

HELLINDA (5) showed good speed to lead over 6f at Gosford last start but faded right out of it to finish ninth. Rates highly in this line up and can atone. PRINCE OF WALES (3) was fresh from a break of five months last start when beaten 3.5 lengths into third over 5f at Gosford after he was up on the pace all the way. The extra journey should play into his hands. Expected to run well. SKIESTHELIMIT (12) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 6f at Kembla Grange. Looks ready to run following a minor placing in a recent Warwick Farm trial. Rates highly and is a chance to break through. Well placed to play a part again.
