Ascot Race 6 - Schweppes Hcp (C3)
NEW TARGET (4) has been superb this time in, bolting in last start in stronger company at Belmont a fortnight ago. This shapes beautifully once again from a good draw and she continues to raise the bar. Back to a CL3 here and she can continue to work through the grades. DOOR BUSTER (7) will be fitter for two trials coming into this after winning in her only run last campaign. The form out of that was strong and she looks as though she hasn't lost a yard coming into this. Can sit handy again from the draw and she can return on a strong note. SPICY THANG (5) comes here fresh and without a trial, though she is a fresh winner first-up in the past. The booking of Parnham is a good push for her chances and she'll go close if she can pick up from where she left off. NICCIMOTA (1) is better than she showed last time out and can bounce back to her best. SO IMMACULATE (6) will find this a little easier than he last start and won't be far away.

At the latest run sat on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 9 at this track Cl5 on March 11 over 1000m, 5 len behind Crippalenko with 56kg at $5. The run before that 4th in a small field at this track Rtg 66+ on February 7 over 1000m, 1.0 len behind Santanova carrying 54.5kg at $8.50. She's better than we saw last start and she can bounce back.

Second run back. First-up after six months ran last of 9 at this track Grad Hcp 60+ on February 28 over 1000m, 4 len behind Pingers with 55kg at $51. Previously second-up 2nd of 13 at Northam Cl3 on June 25 over 1100m, 0.8 len behind Santanova carrying 58kg at $12. That run was a bit plain so prefer him later on.

At the latest run 5th of 10 at Belmont Park 0Mwly on March 4 over 1000m, 2.25 len behind Snow Prince carrying 53kg at $13. The race before that came from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track Westspeed Plat on February 21 over 1000m, 0.7 len behind Best Mood with 53kg at $41. Should be in the mix.

Third-up today. First-up came from midfield and won by 2.5 len at Belmont Park Mdn February 18 over 1000m defeating Bhullar carrying 55kg at $11. Second-up won by 3 len at Belmont Park 3yo 0Mwly March 4 over 1000m defeating Artie's Eclipse carrying 56kg at $2.50. Can extend her winning run with plenty in her favour.

Filly returning from a spell and has won previously when first up. Finished off last preparation third of 9 at this track 3yo 0Mwly November 4 over 1000m, 0.7 len behind Wiluna Lass carrying 59.5kg at $3.60. Previous preparation first-up won by 0.8 len Northam Mdn September 4 over 1000m slow track defeating Celebrity Angel carrying 51.5kg at $2.20. Comes here without a trial but she rates highly on her form last campaign.

Most recently second last of 9 at this track Cl5 on March 11 over 1000m, 5 len behind Crippalenko with 51.5kg at $14. The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Bunbury Cl3 on February 26 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind Eternal Wine with 53kg at $4.20. Can make amends for a disappointing performance last time out.
