Bathurst Race 6 - Alabar Farms Gold Tiara Final (Group 1)
BIRDSONG (9) has been setting the mark in the early juvenile fillies races with easy wins in her three starts at this circuit and distance, cruising home by more than 23m in last week's heat. Draws on the back row but came from that barrier when scoring nicely two back. With even luck she can maintain her perfect record. SOHO ASTER (4) made an immediate impression when she worked forward from a couple of spots wider to lead and win on debut in last week's heat. Will only be better for that hitout and should be able to take advantage of the good draw. SHES A DELANEY (12) may require some luck from her draw on the outside of the back row but she was impressive in a 15m win in her heat, taking her record at this circuit and distance to two from two. GUNNAREASON (10) came from this row when winning last week and has scope for further improvement while LATHER ME UP (6) was runner up despite breaking in her heat and has won a trial since.

Last start was well back in the run when 2nd (Fr7) over 1730m at this track, at the bell was 2nd-1.39 beaten 3.5 m by Gunnareason (2:04.90) in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $13. Two runs back 8th (Fr8) over 1730m at this track well beaten by Shes A Delaney (2:06.00) in 2yo 1 WIN on February 18 at $9. Not as keen on her chances in this field.

Two-year-old filly facing the starter for the second time. At debut surrendered the lead and finished 2nd (Fr1) over 1730m after showing early pace at this track beaten 23 m by Birdsong (2:03.80) in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $23. Facing a tough assignment this time around.

Was on debut by 3.5 m (Fr5) at this track (2:03.40) beating Lexy Belle in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $4.40 at the bell was leading 3.64. Shows promise and strips fitter so could be hard to stop from the good draw..

Last start surrendered the lead and finished 2nd (Fr4) over 1730m after showing early speed at this track, at the bell was 3rd-4.21 beaten 3.5 m by Soho Aster (2:03.40) in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $26. Two runs back broke in score up and was out of position at the start surrendered the lead and finished 7th (Fr3) over 1730m after showing early speed at this track beaten 25 m by Shes A Delaney (2:06.00) in 2yo 1 WIN on February 18 at $5. This looks a far sterner task.

Two runs back won by 4 m as favourite (Fr2) at Leeton (2:10.50) beating Ezzra in 2yo MAIDEN on March 10 at $3 at the bell was leading 3.8. Capable of playing a role.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Passion And Pain at Newcastle over 1609m in a 2yo No NR on February 27 at $1.20. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third behind Soho Aster at this track over 1730m in a 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $1.40. Shapes as one to consider.

Comes here in the right form. Posted a big 23 m win as favourite (Fr5) at this track (2:03.80) beating Swissville in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $1.25 at the bell was leading 6.71. Two runs back posted a big 10 m win as favourite (Sr1) at this track (2:06.10) beating Del Licious in 2yo 1 WIN on March 4 at $1.30 at the bell was 2nd-0.41. Has been impressive so far and can overcome the back row draw to win again.

Ran well last start showing plenty of improvement following March 6 run. Last start won by 8 m after showing early speed, (Fr3) at this track (2:07.40) beating Lather Me Up in 2yo No NR F on March 18 at $5 at the bell was 3rd-4.21. This race will be harder than that win. Heat winner but the draw makes it tricky.
