Armidale Race 5 - Xxxx Gold (Bm58)
CHIDIAC (1) exciting Cavanough-trained mare by Better Than ready undefeated in two runs. Up in weight and demolished her rivals again when a slick winner over 1100m at Quirindi. Will appreciate the 4kg claim and expected to take catching again from the inside gate. DOLLY JAYNE (4) resumes with a good fresh record. Raced in much stronger class last time in and given the two trials in readiness. Sure to be thereabouts. BRIGHT DAISY (7) working towards a win and like the way she's attacked the line at her last two starts. Blinkers stay on and the tempo suits. PURPLE ESPRIT (5) has the two wins from eight starts and had genuine excuses from the wide gates at her last two outings. Maps well and expected to take a had in the finish.

Looking to keep her unbeaten record intact. Well in the market on debut, favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 2.75 len at Quirindi Mdn December 10 over 1200m defeating Bravaro with 55.5kg at $2.80. Last start favourite; won by 1.75 len at Quirindi Cl1 December 26 over 1100m defeating Callie Cool with 60kg at $1.60. Hard to stop again.

Most recently sat on the speed throughout before fading second last of 10 at Coffs Harbour F&M Bm58 on January 12 over 1300m, slow going 5.5 len behind See The Saint with 58.5kg at $3.70. The run before that raced on the pace before fading 8th of 12 at Inverell Cl3 on January 1 over 1200m, 5 len behind Power Beau with 55kg at $6. Will not find this easy. Improver from the better draw.

Last start 5th of 10 at Port Macquarie Bm58 on January 3 over 1200m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Orsum carrying 55kg at $21. The start before that came from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Coffs Harbour Bm50 on December 14 over 1012m, 2.25 len behind Miss Mazerati with 60.5kg at $5.50. Rates highly and is among the chances.

Comes off a 45 day let-up. Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 8 at Coffs Harbour Bm50 on December 14 over 1315m, 1.0 len behind Dodgeball with 59kg at $8.50. The start before that raced behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 7 at Taree Ctry Bm58 on December 3 over 1258m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Chesteray with 55.5kg at $26. Slim place prospects.
