Revealed: What will win and why at Warwick Farm on Wednesday
8. Saffron Veil wins in one or two more bounds on debut and she looks well suited to turn the tables despite being the only maiden in the field. She has a 4kg weight swing in her favour, draws one and an extra 100m. Take some beating. 1. Blessed Eagle was able to hold on and lead all the way to beat Saffron Veil two weeks ago in that 1100m maiden. Big weight disadvantage for her but makes her own luck and sure to give a sight. 7. Sequinned hasn’t raced for five weeks since defying a betting drift to score at Kensington at the end of July. Up 5.5kg for that win but stays under notice. How to play it: Saffron Veil to win.
15. Waiheke Rose is on debut for the Waterhouse/Bott camp and her latest trial win was exceptional as she came from off the pace to score narrowly. Don’t imagine she’ll be too far from the speed here with gate one and should run well. 16. Your Colour was unwanted in betting in a stronger race when resuming and she did a handy job running on into fourth behind Steel Will. Has a good each-way chance. 12. Sing Your Song was a well-supported favourite at Canterbury and wasn’t disgraced in a close third after having to make a move coming to the turn. Fitter for it and trip looks to suit. How to play it: Waiheke Rose to win.
1. Appeared looks a promising stayer in the making and while he did get outsprinted early in the straight first-up you had to like how he wound up to score over the 1880m. Can only be better for it and the extra ground suits. 2. Forbidden Riff is the logical danger coming back from a Benchmark 78 where he ran not a bad race in sixth at Randwick. Placed behind Aethelwulf before that, though safely held, and can be in the finish. 5. Steel Blaze ran on into a place in the Wyong Cup prelude a couple of weeks ago for his best effort this time in. Might be looking for more ground and could be placed again. How to play it: Appeared to win.
9. Motoscafo is a dry tracker and she gets conditions to suit. Was on the heels of the first two in a Midway last time out at Rosehill running a nice third, should be at peak fitness after four runs in and a good each-way hope in an open race. 1. Mazis produced a handy effort when resuming with a third behind Mr Miller over 1400m two weeks ago. Fitter for it and if he can reproduce the performance he can be a major player. 7. Think Itz You comes through the same race, starting $31, and was okay in running fifth. Mile will suit and looks an improver. How to play it: Motoscafo each-way.
11. Queen’s Gamble couldn’t have been more impressive as she swept to a dominant win two weeks ago. Takes the rise in class but if she backs it up you’d imagine she’s headed for the longer legs of the Princess Series. 12. Thrill Hunter was unlucky when resuming at Randwick then an even effort behind Steel Will at Rosehill in tough conditions. Draws well and shapes as though the trip will suit. Definite chance. 13. Asilah was beaten at $1.85 when resuming at Newcastle a few weeks ago, she had an ideal run in behind them but wasn’t able to convert running third. Beaten favourite over this track and trip before a spell, fitter and worth some thought. How to play it: Queen’s Gamble to win.
