Dunkeld Race 1 - Ararat Meat Exports Mdn Plate
FLASH INQUIRY (4) brings the clearest race form after a second at Swan Hill where she was beaten just over a length despite having difficulty getting clear near the 400m, and the 1.5kg apprentice claim is another small help. TRICKY MISS (10) debuts for Ciaron Maher. Respecting any support for the strong yard. RED MINK (8) was only narrowly beaten at Albury last start and with further improvement expected, she shapes as one of the major players. STARSEATIC (9) also comes right into play as she should be prominent from the outset.

Returns from a five-week let-up after being safely held at Mildura, where he was second last, beaten over 13 lengths and unwanted in the market. His debut at Mornington was also plain despite racing wide, finishing last and well held at long odds. See again.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a soft-track debut at the Heath in Open grade, where she was unwanted in the market, settled back and made no impression when last, beaten just over seven lengths by Vega Vixen. Dropping to a Mdn is a more suitable assignment, and a close second in her latest Mortlake trial is an encouraging readiness sign. Possible improver this time in.

Resumed with a much better effort at Swan Hill, finishing second in a Mdn on soft ground and beaten just over a length by What Once Was after having difficulty getting clear near the 400m. That was a clear step forward from an ordinary Echuca debut, and she has already placed at the distance. Second-up, should improve and draws well.

Back from a four-month break after finishing last on debut at Pakenham Synthetic, beaten just under eight lengths after racing just off the speed and failing to launch a challenge. There was some interference at the 600m, but she was a 151.0 chance and still has to show more under race conditions. Has to show marked race-day improvement.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing second last at Tatura, beaten over 14 lengths when unwanted in the market after beginning awkwardly and racing keenly early. Her Echuca debut was also well beaten, with similar keenness noted. Race form is weak and she must lift sharply.

Went very close at Albury last start, starting favourite and being beaten a neck by Carlow Rose after sitting just off the lead, looming up and fighting hard. She was bumped at the start and raced keenly mid-race, so there was enough merit in the run, while her debut at Tatura also showed natural speed before she faded late. Can push forward and give a sight.

Improved to run third at Mortlake last start, beaten three lengths by Ramelle after leading and giving a kick before the effort levelled off inside the final 100m. Her Horsham run prior was only fair, fading late into fourth after being close enough. Minor claims if she finishes off better third-up.

Makes her debut for the Ciaron Maher stable, which commands respect with first starters and gives her a legitimate chance despite limited public trial evidence. She cost $1,250 in May 2026 and her only listed trial was back in June, so the market may be important for readiness. Wary for the top yard.
