2:55am - Jim Beam Stakes | 1400m | Group 3 | i

The classier types at the top of the weights suited in this Group 3 for the mares over 1400m. SWEET SCANDAL stands out as a mare in-form from a nice barrier, fighting on for 3rd in a high rating 1200m sprint last start. She seems to be a stronger mare this prep and could even have some progression third-up now. JAMAICAN RAIN and BELLA MARTINI class mares too, but they need to bounce back from recent runs. From those stepping up in class, LA TIGERESA is a strong challenger setting up nicely to 1400m now following a dominant win over RIVER JEWEL last start. INTO THE ABYSS good enough at best and did beat SWEET SCANDAL last prep, recent form is a bit mixed though. VICTORY KINGDOM suited to 1400m now and has a knock-out hope.
