Warrnambool Race 1 - Maddens Lawyers Mdn Plate
SAPPHIRE REIGN (9) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1100m at Seymour, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Strips fitter and looks well placed here. Expected to go close this line-up. SMART AND MIGHTY (2) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 1000m at Albury. Will go forward again and he should be in the finish. SILVER CAPITAL (1) has not raced since his debut back on October 11 when he finished sixth over 1100m at Hamilton. Open to improvement and can feature. CRICKWOOD (5) struggled on a heavy track on debut then was put away again. Trialling very well and expected to improve sharply.
