Race Tip
SA Fillies Classic winner BLESS MY STARS (2) is back at the races for the first time since November 25. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 1m at this track. Sure to make her presence felt. Group 1 winner SAFE PASSAGE (4) finished 8 lengths away in eighth last time out over 7f at this track when resuming from a lay-off. Steps up in journey. Has a high cruising speed. Best figures should see him run well. MERIDIUS (6) has been thereabouts, finishing fourth at this track last time and a neck from the winner. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Winning claims on best figures. Group 3 winner LITIGATION (5) did a great job to score by a head over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is capable of another big run.
