Fairview Race 3 - Racing240 Maiden Plate (F & M)
Lots of these close to a win. ROYAL MISSY (5) is fitter for two runs back, the latest putting the writing on the wall with a narrow second. That was first try this course and distance. Ready to win and gets chance OH MANDY (3) has put together a string of minor placings, the latest third here at the trip before being freshened. Has placed 6/7 this course and distance and somehow yet to break through but expected to go close again. ROYAL MERMAID (1) is a seven-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 7 lengths when fifth over 1200m at this track. Fitter and has placed second-up. Bold showing expected. LACRYMA CHRISTI (6) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 17 lengths into fourth. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Previously second-up 3rd of 10 at Scottsville on December 29 over 1600m, on a slow track; 3 len behind Sonata Samaritan with 60kg at $41. Improver with definite claims.
