Randwick-Kensington Race 3 - Buy An Arrowfield Graduate Mdn Plate
LADY OF THE CASTLE (11) started favourite but gave away too much start on debut last time out over 1100m at Gosford, clocking in an eye-catching second. Maps nicely - watch for another big finish on this longer run home. DOUBLE VISION (5) is an interesting debutante from the Waterhouse/Bott yard. At the races for the first time as a four-year-old. Has trialled twice and won both so there is obviously some talent there. Keep a close watch on the betting. INDIGO STAR (1) was hard to miss first-up at the Beaumont track, rattling home into second at the end of 1200m. A little surprised to see Waller drop him back a shade in trip but trust the premier trainer and James McDonald who has taken the ride. KITESURFING (10) had a few things go against her first-up at Canterbury in a run that may be worth overlooking. Freshened up and showed enough on debut last prep to suggest she can be competitive. LET'S GO BARBIE (6) is a chance second-up from an extended break. Respect GORGEOUS (9) on debut.

Second run back. First-up after four months came home strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 8 at Beaumont (Newcastle) Mdn-Sw on December 26 over 1200m, 1.0 len behind Harry's Halo with 59kg at $3.40. Previously second-up 2nd in a small field at this track Super Mdn-Sw on June 25 over 1100m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind Stardeel with 59kg at $4. Fitter and worth following up.

Three-year-old colt (Snitzel - Euro Angel) will no doubt benefit from the three trials leading in today's debut. Fifth at Rosehill in a 900m trial on January 2. Prefer to see under race conditions.
