Flemington Race 4 - Inglis Bracelet
SASS APPEAL (2) rates clear off a very game fourth in the G1 Empire Rose on Saturday, only beaten 3.6 lengths by Lady Shenandoah after sitting outside a fast tempo. Provided she backs up from that, she's clearly the one to beat. POLYMNIA (8) has solid Sydney form, placing fourth in the G3 Angst Stakes on Everest Day after early trouble. She needs another win (1 from 22) but sets up very well and won't get too many better chances. FIREBALL MISS (1) was just fair fresh against the boys in Listed company over 1400m but should strip much fitter and was a G1 Queensland Oaks winner over the Winter. BELLA VERONA (12) is racing well in easier and could measure up.

Second run back. First-up after four months 9th of 14 in the LR Weekend Hussler Stakes at Caulfield on October 10 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Persian Spirit carrying 56kg at $21. Previously second-up ran on from midfield and won by a head in a Super Mdn at Rosehill on February 25 over 1500m defeating Almaaz with 56kg at $2.70. Can improve sharply second up to a mile.

Racing well recently. At the latest run raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 in the G1 Empire Rose Stakes at this track on October 31 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Lady Shenandoah with 56.5kg at $18. The run before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 9 in the G2 Stocks Stakes at Caulfield on September 27 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Changing Colours carrying 58kg at $2.15. Very good on Saturday and this is a lot easier, very hard to catch.

At the latest run came home strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 9 in a Bm62 at Cranbourne on October 16 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Ranarsson with 60kg at $5. The start before that ran last in a small field in a Bm66 at Pakenham Synthetic on October 2 over 1200m, 3 len behind Persian Caviar carrying 57kg at $3.20. In the money recently but this looks a bit rich.

Recent form sound. Most recently made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 11 in a Mcc Heat (Qc) at Geelong on October 21 over 1500m, 2.25 len behind Sulek with 56kg at $3.40. The start before that favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len in a Bm66 at Geelong on October 7 over 1447m in soft going defeating Mount Sabyinyo carrying 60kg at $1.70. Nice type who gets a soft run and can measure up.
