Alice Springs Race 1 - Ladies Day March 22 Hcp
FORGETABOUTIT (1) just missed the bob of the head when finishing second by a nose fresh up in his first local start since arriving from Queensland. He has the winkers on for the first time and with that run under his belt, he is the one to beat in this. SNEAKY FREDDY (2) was fourth fresh up in the same race as the top pick and will continue to improve with racing. Each way claims from a superior draw this time. KING BLING (3) is an ex-Victorian gelding who is expected to make a positive start to his local career fresh up in the small field. GRINZINGER LASS (5) is another ex-Victorian resuming from a 7-week freshen up and she should not have any trouble finding some good form at short notice. BOOM SMASH OPERA (4) strips fitter second up and a 5-horse field means he has a chance to run into the money for the first time in his career.

Second-up. First-up after seven months second last of 8 at this track Bm54 on February 15 over 1100m, 4 len behind Augusta Moon carrying 54kg at $17. Previously second-up second last of 10 at Wyong Prov Mdn on August 4 over 1350m, slow going 11 len behind Kervette with 56kg at $61. Rates highly and expected to do much better with that run under his belt.

Third-up today. Not raced for 48 days. First-up struggled in the run home; second last of 10 at Wagga Riverside Super Mdn on December 24 over 1200m, 6 len behind Bide Your Time with 55kg at $5. Second run from a spell 6th of 8 at Wodonga 3yo Mdn-Sw on January 5 over 1100m, 5 len behind Majestic Reward with 56kg at $9. Terrific chance to return to form.
