Best Bet Ascot r1 Story Book (Place) ; Hard to line up Pinjarra 1000m form but she also ran a good 2nd to Rockin Rupert mid November. Most likely gets back to last but with only seven in it I’m happy to go 10/90 % each way despite it being pay 1 & 2 only . The favourite OH SOPHIA won her maiden same day, track and distance in near identical time. Hardest to beat hence why $2.35 place vs $2.30 win looks a good bet.

Ascot r7 Pure Devotion ; Blinkers on and the 4kg weight swing against Black Shadow make me lean her way in the final major lead up to the Perth Cup. Add the teams ability to peak at the right time and she should be fighting out the finish. Huge respect to Paddy’s Shadow and Stafford’s Lad .
