Armidale Race 1 - Jiminy Purkiss Mdn Hcp
ALMAS JEWEL (2) made an encouraging debut at Taree, finishing fifth over 1300m. She should take significant improvement from that experience and with the Archibald team hitting form at the right time, she looks a leading player with plenty of upside. FIRE ISLAND (3) is a stablemate of the top pick resuming from a spell, and she is capable of a bold run fresh up. Keep safe. MONEY ON MY MIND (5) ran a much better race for second at Toowoomba last start, and she can hold that form here. Include in all top 4 combos in a modest field. PURPLE PRINCE (8) remains a maiden after 24 starts but finished a solid fourth over 1000m at Tuncurry after getting well back in the field last time out. If he gets away cleanly, he can be competitive and appeals as a value top 4 chance again. WINGEANDWIN (9) was below her best when sixth at Ipswich last time, and has since changed stables. She is worth some consideration, especially if there is any market confidence.

Gelding by Spirit Of Boom on debut. Trialled on September 9 at Scone over 1100m and finished fourth. Fitter for recent trials but likely to struggle.

Dual acceptor. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 in a Mdn at Toowoomba on September 5 over 1300m, 5.5 len behind Hawaiian Bloom carrying 53kg at $16.

Most recently couldn't go on with it; 7th of 11 in a Ctry Mdn at Scone on September 1 over 1300m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Summer Force carrying 53kg at $91. Before that didn't do much in the run home; 11th of 13 in a Ctry Mdn at Gunnedah on August 14 over 1400m, on a slow track; 9 len behind High Grade carrying 54.5kg at $31. Expect a better showing this time around.

Form hard to fault. Most recently ran on strongly from last on the turn; 4th of 8 in a Ctry Mdn at Tuncurry on September 11 over 1000m, 2.5 len behind Heart Of Jenni with 55kg at $31. Before that 4th of 13 in a Cl1-Sw at Quirindi on August 4 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Immortal Rose carrying 54.5kg at $41. Likely to prove hard to hold out.
