OFF THE TRACK TROPHY
Results
SUNTORA (2) is flying of late having won two on the bounce impressively before a narrow defeat at Cranbourne in a messy finish. Up to a BM78 here but it doesn't look any harder and she gets Zahra aboard from a soft gate. MISS PLAYLOUNGE (4) can mix her form but showed her true colours with a dominant performance at Cranbourne over 1600m last time out, running on strongly from well back to score by 2.25 lengths. She should relish 1800m on the big track here. I ONLY WISH (7) is another that can mix her form, well beaten last time without luck behind Miss Playlounge as a $3.20 hope having run very well behind the smart Jenni Gone Bonkers (in R1) prior. She can bounce back. SEAFALL (3) has been solid to the line in two runs back and should be ready to peak now. EXPEETEE (1) has won two of her past three and will run honestly.
