Scottsville Race 6 - Gallop Tv Middle Stakes (F & M)
LADYOFDISTINCTION (3) returns after a spell of 11 weeks. Placed 2/2 this circuit, placed 2/2 fresh and unbeaten from two tries at the trip. Goes close. TOMYRIS (5) has been thereabouts without winning but saves best for this course and distance. One of the chief contenders. MISS TWINKLE (4) went to the paddock after scoring at her last appearance three months ago over 1750m at this track. Improved throughout campaign last time in and can return even better. Expect a bold showing. ONE SMART COOKIE (6) started at $4.50 last time but could only manage fifth, beaten 2.25 lengths, at this track over 1200m. Form at this track is solid. Not to be discounted.
