Race comment
OVERVIEW: IM LADY MADELEINE (2) is a speedy mare and is returning after a stint in Tasmania. She finished fourth to Go Dancing at her last Victorian attempt in June 2021 and she was placed in the Premiere Stakes during her juvenile season. She is ideally drawn and is likely to try and lead throughout over the sprint distance. CLEM MCARDLE (7) raced keenly from his position of being four back on the markers and had little luck in obtaining a clear passage in the home straight when an unlucky sixth behind Holi Starzzz at Maryborough on Monday. He is better than his form reads and should be hitting the line strongly. PIRATESOFZANZIBAR (4) endured a torrid trip and fought hard when fourth at Echuca last outing. He lacks high speed but he is a very tough competitor and will be hard to toss if he can muster enough pace early to work into the death seat. MISS TYLER (6) had a tendency to hang in over the concluding stages at Gunbower so being drawn on the outside of the front line at Boort will be a disadvantage. She is racing consistently however and is worth a ticket each way. STAR SHINE (3) is stepping up in class form her latest victory at Swan Hill but she cannot be left out of calculations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 4,6,7/ 3/ 1,5

OVERVIEW: IM LADY MADELEINE (2) is a speedy mare and is returning after a stint in Tasmania. She finished fourth to Go Dancing at her last Victorian attempt in June 2021 and she was placed in the Premiere Stakes during her juvenile season. She is ideally drawn and is likely to try and lead throughout over the sprint distance. CLEM MCARDLE (7) raced keenly from his position of being four back on the markers and had little luck in obtaining a clear passage in the home straight when an unlucky sixth behind Holi Starzzz at Maryborough on Monday. He is better than his form reads and should be hitting the line strongly. PIRATESOFZANZIBAR (4) endured a torrid trip and fought hard when fourth at Echuca last outing. He lacks high speed but he is a very tough competitor and will be hard to toss if he can muster enough pace early to work into the death seat. MISS TYLER (6) had a tendency to hang in over the concluding stages at Gunbower so being drawn on the outside of the front line at Boort will be a disadvantage. She is racing consistently however and is worth a ticket each way. STAR SHINE (3) is stepping up in class form her latest victory at Swan Hill but she cannot be left out of calculations.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: IM LADY MADELEINE (2) is a speedy mare and is returning after a stint in Tasmania. She finished fourth to Go Dancing at her last Victorian attempt in June 2021 and she was placed in the Premiere Stakes during her juvenile season. She is ideally drawn and is likely to try and lead throughout over the sprint distance. CLEM MCARDLE (7) raced keenly from his position of being four back on the markers and had little luck in obtaining a clear passage in the home straight when an unlucky sixth behind Holi Starzzz at Maryborough on Monday. He is better than his form reads and should be hitting the line strongly. PIRATESOFZANZIBAR (4) endured a torrid trip and fought hard when fourth at Echuca last outing. He lacks high speed but he is a very tough competitor and will be hard to toss if he can muster enough pace early to work into the death seat. MISS TYLER (6) had a tendency to hang in over the concluding stages at Gunbower so being drawn on the outside of the front line at Boort will be a disadvantage. She is racing consistently however and is worth a ticket each way. STAR SHINE (3) is stepping up in class form her latest victory at Swan Hill but she cannot be left out of calculations. EARLY SPEED: 2 (likely leader), 1,3,4,5 RATINGS: 2/ 4,6,7/ 3/ 1,5
