Gosford Race 6 - The Ary, Toukley Plate (C1)
LIYAH'S GIRL (3) is the horse to beat after two solid Canberra runs, the latest a fifth beaten just under two lengths after being checked late, and her record of four placings from five starts at the distance gives her the right grounding for 2030m. FREDDIE BASSETT (2) brings the strongest class reference, dropping out of a BM72 at Newcastle where he was only beaten a length and a half after being bumped and covering ground, with the first try at this trip the main query. SCOISH MALOISH (11) is still a maiden but was checked when fourth, beaten just under a length, at Hawkesbury and looks ready to improve third-up. Ready for this trip. DON'S PARTY (1) one paced type who gets the tongue-tie going on after he dropped in trip with a battling sixth over 1600m at Kembla Grange. Capable of better in the small field.

Found wanting late when last of six at Kembla Grange over 1600m, beaten three and a half lengths by Cap D'Ail, and now goes to 2030m for the first time. His Newcastle fourth prior had more merit after an awkward start and a held-up run, while Andrew Calder has a useful record on him. Place claims look realistic.

Drops sharply out of BM72 grade after a sound Newcastle fifth over 1900m, beaten a length and a half by Sumac at generous odds after being bumped early and racing wide through the middle stages. He was fitter for that second-up run after fading over 1500m first-up, and he should race handy from barrier five. Third-up, he looks a major winning chance.

Rises from a country Canberra run to stronger company, but that fifth behind Pure Melody was better than it reads after she was checked late and beaten just under two lengths. She had been a well-supported favourite when second by a neck to Star Turn Dancer the start prior, and her four placings from five starts at this distance are a key asset. Drawn low and expected to go close.

Comes back from a BM64 at Hawkesbury after finishing last, beaten just over eight lengths by Malbork Castle, when unwanted in the market and unable to challenge. She was beaten over 15 lengths at the same venue prior, so the recent form is plain. Outclassed.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh in a BM58 at Dubbo, beaten six and a half lengths by Backhander, and that came at country level before a stronger meeting here. Her Bowraville third prior was sound after racing wide throughout and being beaten a long neck, but she has been unplaced in two tries at this distance. Distance record keeps her to place claims.

Resumed with a distant fifth in a Mdn at Muswellbrook, beaten just over nine lengths by Imelda after covering ground and only battling late. The prior Happy Valley run in RST60-40 grade was also unplaced despite market respect, and he remains winless from eleven starts. Improver from the better draw.

Finished last at Canberra behind Pure Melody, beaten just over nine lengths at long odds, and the stewards' note of racing keenly does not provide enough of an excuse. He had also been last in a Mdn at Kembla Grange when unwanted in betting. Hard to recommend even with the blinkers going on.

Closed to fourth in a Mdn at Hawkesbury, beaten just under a length by My Cartouche despite racing keenly and being checked at the 200m, so the run has more substance than the market expected. His Goulburn fourth prior on soft ground was also sound after racing keenly throughout. The 2030m is new, but he has a live winning chance.
