Verdict

PRECIOUS GIRL (8) returned for her second campaign with a tenacious on-pace second over 4 ½f at Newcastle. Has further upside to come from the good gate. Goes close. BOBBY (1) Menari gelding from Fluttershy on debut for the Perry yard. Has impressed in all three trials and will prove hard to hold out with Fitzgerald's 3lbs claim. DIACON (3) Tassort filly from Sutton Forest making her debut for the Bjorn Baker stable. Fitted with four trials and looks well placed on the Gosford circuit from the inside gate. MAJESTIC LEGEND (7) knocked up late when returning for her second prep when fifth over 5f at Hawkesbury. No shock to see her figure in the placings.

Horse Racing Basic Terms

Main Track Only

A horse entered for main track only (MTO) is one hoping the weather forecast or track conditions will move the race off the turf course and onto the main track. They are scratched the morning of the race if the conditions stay dry.

Trifecta

A wager picking the first, second and third horses in the exact order. A trifecta box means paying more to ensure the horses can finish in any order in the top three spots.

Dead Heat

Two or more horses finishing so close at the wire, that they were unable to be separated on a photo finish and deemed to have tied.
