Sale Race 1 - Happy 50Th Emma Burge
KING OF PAIN (6) turned in a better effort at Warragul last start, finishing second behind Essendon Girl (22.99) in a Maiden. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Deserves serious consideration. MINH ARDIE (8) drew a middle box and finished out of the placings on debut at Warragul over 400m (23.14). Can improve sharply here. DR. AURORA (5) is a 19 start maiden who has placed nine times, the latest finishing in the minor money again when third at this track. Gave a huge sight last time and went down narrowly. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Well placed and gets her chance. DR. TANYA (1) has strong claims after a top-three finish at this track and distance last time out.

Ran a fair race on debut when jumped well and was on speed, fading to finish fourth (23.14) at Warragul over 400m. Likely to be much improved. Capable of a strong show.
