Race Tip

NAVAL COLLEGE (2) ran below expectations when fresh from a lay-off at this track over 1m last time, finishing eighth and beaten 2.75 lengths. The engagement of Jett Stanley is noteworthy. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DEFICIT (7) finished 2 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1m at this track three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Right in the mix. Group 1 placegetter CABOCHE (6) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 4 lengths back in sixth over 1m2f at this track. One of the main contenders. Group 3 placegetter MISS YOU ELLA (4) was on the speed from the rails draw when resuming last start and battled on well to finish third over 1m at Kembla Grange. In the right race and is sure to prove hard to beat.
