Esperance Race 1 - Esperance Smash Repairs Mdn
I HAD A DREAM (1) fought on bravely to finish runner-up here off a wide draw just over 3 weeks ago and filled the same spot fresh up before that. He has a superior gate this time and can go one better. FAVAIOS (2) has been racing well since joining the local Helen Harding stable and did well to finish third last time out from a wide draw. Kyra Yuill picks up the ride and maybe she can coax that little bit extra out of him where it matters most. FLINDERS LANE (4) finished fifth fresh up at Bunbury nearly 3 weeks ago and will find this much easier. She is expected to improve quickly. Each way value. QUEEN OF CHAOS (3) has not had all the luck lately and can do a lot better than her recent form suggests. Kristy Bennett is back in the saddle and the pair merit healthy respect. ESSENTIALLY (5) will strip fitter second up and did win a trial prior to finishing seventh fresh up at Ascot. Don't risk her in this company.

Recent form sound. Most recently 3rd of 12 at this track Mdn on December 26 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Dubai's Daughter with 58kg at $5.50. The start before that held ground to the line 2nd of 13 at this track Mdn on December 6 over 1200m, 1.4 len behind Cohen's Song with 58kg at $3.50. Doesn't need to improve a great deal to take this out.

Third race start today. At big odds at debut, 5th of 12 at this track Mdn on November 23 over 1100m, 6 len behind Royal Accolade carrying 56kg at $41. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 13 at this track Mdn on December 6 over 1200m, 5 len behind Cohen's Song carrying 56kg at $31. Will find this a bit too tough.

Four-year-old mare (A Lot - Royal Anna) has trialled on two occasions leading into today's race. Sixth over 930m in a Lark Hill trial on June 4. Others profile better so prepared to risk.
