Ipswich Race 1 - Tab Mdn Plate
OUR BRAVE LINI (9) has been just behind the placegetters in town in both career outings to date and should find this assignment a touch easier. Lerena sticks in the irons following that last-start effort and can feature with natural improvement. HERALD ANGEL (3) resumes here but the form she showed in her first preparation was good enough for a race of this nature. Can play a big role from the inside alley. CHAMPAGNE TOWER (2) has placed two of three over this track and trip and gets some weight relief with the 3kg claim. Top-three candidate. ICYMISS (6) is facing the starter for the first time but has shown ability at the trials and won't need to be a superstar to be competitive against this lot. Keep very safe. LUKEY BLUE (8) strips fitter third-up from the spell and may earn some minor money.

At the latest run eased back early on 8th of 12 at this track F&M Mdn-Sw on November 13 over 1350m, slow going 5 len behind Hidden Future with 58kg at $18. The run before that 2nd of 14 at Warwick 4yo+ Mdn-Sw on October 11 over 1350m, 0.9 len behind Elltitude with 56kg at $6. Best form stacks up nicely and deserves another chance.

Three-year-old filly (Prince Fawaz - Nymeria). Dam was a winner of one race. Will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading in today's debut. Fifth over 1200m in a Deagon trial on November 20. Prefer to see.

First starter. Three-year-old filly by Trapeze Artist out of Fabulous Fran. Dam was a winner of one race. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 1050m at Deagon November 20. Would prefer to see her perform on race day before recommending.
