6:35am - GOLDEN PENDANT | 1400m | Group 2 | i

So many mares with similar form in this years G2 Golden Pendant. SWEET REDEMPTION the likely leader from DAYSEE DOOM coming across with a couple for company, setting a FAIR tempo. DAYSEE DOOM trialled very well into her first-up run and beat most of these home when 3rd to Ravi in the G3 Sheraco. DANISH TWIST was very unlucky there though and should relish the 1400m (if she finds cover), don't forget she was placed in the G1 Coolmore last prep. DIXIE BLOSSOMS clearly the class runner after an admirable return first-up (left chasing track record time) with big improvement likely second-up. Perhaps a small gap then to BONNY O'REILLY (needs extra stamina over the final 100m) and OMEI SWORD (form just OK, is she the big talent we thought?), but there won't be much between these at the finish! DENMAGIC Blinkers OFF FIRST TIME. [updated 8:57am]
