Race 3 - 1:17pm J.J. Richards & Sons Handicap (1200 Metres) – Full Field
7. LUCKY ESCAPE
TABtouch opening price: $26
A two-year-old having his first start out of the Trevor Andrews yard.
Need we say more?
He is a superbly bred son of two and three-year-old Group One winner Star Witness and 2008 Listed WATC Matchmaker Stakes (now Sheila Gwynne Classic) winner Danecay.
Lucky Escape was purchased as a yearling for $100,000 from Western Breeders Alliance at the 2016 Magic Millions Perth Yearling Sale.
The recent trial was just okay when hitting the line soundly in fourth on 12 June over 1000m but he did look as though he needed 1200m and maybe little bit extra.
1200m on raceday will suit and he could go under the radar like Illustrious Tycoon did for the same noted juvenile trainer.
Watch the recent trial when hitting the line nicely (red silks with black sleeves):
Race 6 - 3:10pm Young Membership Handicap (1400 Metres) – Full Field
2. ALL TOO MUCH
TABtouch opening price: $13
All Too Much needed the run on 14 June over 1700m after a let up.
He led before fading late on that occasion but was only beaten by 3.75 lengths.
The blinkers are applied and he should be hard fit in race which lacks tempo.
Expect him to roll along near the lead and be hard to catch.
Watch his brave effort last start (white and purple diagonal checks):

4. PERSIAN PRINCESS
TABtouch opening price: $14
Persian Princess has raced in Saturday grade for all but one run this preparation.
She drops in class once again for the first time since her second up run over 1500m on 11 May at Pinjarra, which was in class three company.
The daughter of Stryker also steps out over 2100m for the first time in her career which may suit considering her ‘get back and run on’ style of racing.
Watch her running on from last behind Roughead over 1600m (blue silks with lime green sleeves):
