4:00am - PRESS STATEMENT @ VINERY HANDICAP | 1100m | | i

A few on-pacers in this 1100m scamper, perhaps INVICTUS SALUTE the fastest early, the filly expected to take the lead at a tempo that could be on the STRONG side. She'll be very hard to run down back to 1100m on a better track, a powerful girl that has been looking for these conditions all prep and the recent form is OK (worked early in a G3 last start). RONSTAR (won trial) and LET ME SLEEP ON IT (solid trials 3rd, 2nd) have claims on their best form, both a little 'up and down' of late. BELLADEEL shapes as being the strongest late back to 1100m if they go too hard, his trials were good (1st and 3rd) and he's got big upside, a son of Dundeel that will find his best over further. Let Me Sleep On It: Blinkers OFF AGAIN. [FORM GUIDE only]
