Down Royal Race 3 - Future Ticketing X Kappture Handicap
BILLIE BE QUICK (1) opened her account over course and distance end of last season. Just denied a neck-second to ARCTIC STEPS (3) who broke her maiden at huge odds here last month. Not much separates them where the former could reverse placings although any strong market signals for the latter are to be heeded. EL FONTENARO (5) finished a close third behind the aforementioned pair. Thereabouts. VANDERBILT HOUSE (2) drops back in journey and cannot be ruled out.

Second-up. First-up after seven months 3rd of 11 at this track on May 30 over 1005m, 0.5 len behind Arctic Steps carrying 58kg at $7.50. Previously second-up 13th of 15 at Cork on June 14 2024 over 1207m, 16 len behind Babouche with 55kg at $201. Likely to hold the good form and play a major role again.
