Race Tip
FLYING EMBERS (4) sat on the pace last time and fought on well when a neck away in second over 6f at Kembla Grange. Sure to feature again. HOO HAA (17) is a 17-start maiden finding it tough to win but has been in the placings at her last two runs, finishing second most recently over 6¼f at Kempsey. Meets a tougher line-up this time but should be hard to stop. TAUTOU (1) is back from a 43 day freshen-up following a third at Wyong last time. Readied for this with a recent trial placing. Has a high cruising speed. Will give backers a great sight. MURPHILLY (3) started at big odds on debut last start but ran a bold race, finishing second and beaten 2.5 lengths over 4½f at this track. Has upside and worth including.
