Century Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - 1609m
Y V FOUR ROSES (10) has been racing well of late. Finished fifth at her latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 8 metres. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is capable of testing her rivals. PUP (1) is an outstanding three-year-old filly who has six wins from seven career runs. Added to her credentials last start when she scored by 1.75 metres over 1609m at this track. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Meeting a deeper field this time but she good enough to play a major role. TERRIBLE CUSTARD (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 1.3 metres at this track over 1609m. BLUE STAR STRIKE (7) finished second at this track last time. Consistent and deserves respect.

Comes here in the right form. Won by 1.75 m as favourite at this track (1:54.30) beating Blue Star Aspire in 3yo F on August 1 at $1.15 at the bell was leading. Two runs back won by a 0.5 m as favourite at this track (1:53.40) beating Hot Shot Shark in FM on July 25 at $2.10 at the bell was 3rd-. Big chance with the aid of the ace draw.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing seventh behind Pup at this track over 1609m in a FM on July 25 at $19.30. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.75 m finishing second behind Pup at this track over 1609m in a 3yo F on August 1 at $10.70. Chief contender.
