Race Tip
BELLA NIPOTINA (3) is putting together some solid results. Finished third in the G2 Premiere Stakes at Randwick two starts back then got the job done by a nose last time out over 6f in the G1 The Everest at Randwick. Craig Williams scored on her last time and retains the ride. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done again. SUNSHINE IN PARIS (4) finished 1.5 lengths back in fifth in stakes company last time over 6f in the G1 The Everest at Randwick. Did win when fresh from a lay-off two runs back by a neck in the G2 Sheraco Stakes at this track. Good enough to take this out. I AM ME (12) dug deep to win by a head two runs back in the G2 The Shorts at Randwick then finished tenth over 6f in the G1 The Everest at Randwick last time. Will find this easier. Has a fine record here with three wins from four starts. Expected to run well. KING OF SPARTA (2) resumed last time out and finished fourth over 6f at Randwick, beaten 2.25 lengths. Definite chance.
