The Meadows Race 9 - Sportsbet Feed Damsels Dash
PURE SILK (6) was narrowly beaten when placing two back but missed the frame latest finishing eighth (31.18) in a Special conditions race at Angle Park. Better than latest and can atone here. MEPUNGA SANDY (3) took advantage of the inside draw with an all-the-way win last start (34.69) at Sandown in a Mix 6/7 over 595m. Should be in this for a long way. ZIPPING TESFAY (4) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by half a length at Sandown in a handy 29.94 beating Xara Navy. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Can measure up again. MORAINE SARA (1) comes into calculations after placing most recently.

Good effort last time when third (30.05) over 515m at Sandown. Draws the cherry this time. Worth including.

Was out of placings last time (26.71) at Warragul in a Special conditions H, finishing eighth and beaten 13 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. Can hit the frame with the right run.

Comes off a (29.94) win last time, scoring by half a length in a Grade 5 over 515m at Sandown. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks suited and should go close.

Form has been strong with wins two and three starts back. Last time out finished 3rd on September 23 over 525m at this track behind Detection beaten 4 lengths (30.52) in a Grade 5. Would be better placed in something easier.
