RACE COMMENT
Winning the inaugural 2YO edition of this Series, COOL AND CLASSY (4) looks to have a stranglehold on the 3YO leg an move her stake earnings towards $500k. Unable to reel in ARRIVE in the Triad Final, she was fresh into the prelude for this with an effortless 9m margin. Added fitness can see her dominate. SEASIDE GLORY (3) will take good benefit from the prelude where she was first up since May and faced with an awkward barrier. Easing for position and running home in smart order, she was shut down following successive wins, including a tough effort when parked. Improved gate and added fitness are a big asset. THE LADY DIOR (5) has been runner-up in successive appearances with her effort behind COOL AND CLASSY a tough performance when parked. Only a half-neck away the start prior, the gate is against her. LONDON BABY (2) is another that was fresh into last Friday’s Prelude and was jammed by gate 7. Sliding into the running line, she worked home in good order and can chase a podium payday.
