Woodbine Race 10 - E. P. Taylor S. Stakes
DIAMOND RAIN (4) finished second two runs back in the G3 Hoppings Stakes at Newcastle All Weather then improved last time out to score by 4.5 lengths as favourite over 2112m in the LR Lyric Stakes at York. William Buick scored on her last time and retains the mount. It doesn't get any easier but on current form she is good enough to take this out. GIMME A NOTHER (1) pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by 0.3 lengths over 1911m in the G2 Beverly D Stakes at Colonial Downs Turf (Turf). Facing a tougher assignment but she is up to the task. ACHIEVE (2) is racing well, scoring two back at Colonial Downs Inner Turf (Turf) before finishing 0.3 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1911m in the G2 Beverly D Stakes at Colonial Downs Turf (Turf). Should camp just off the leaders. Capable of testing this field. SEE THE FIRE (8) turned in an eye-catching run over 2011m in the G1 Nassau Stakes at Goodwood last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Will spot them a start but watch for her late.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Resuming won by 3.5 len in the G3 Eatontown Stakes at Monmouth Park Turf on June 13 over 1710m defeating Whiskey Decision carrying 53.5kg at $2.20. Second-up came from midfield and won by a 0.3 len in the G2 Beverly D Stakes at Colonial Downs Turf on August 1 over 1911m defeating Achieve carrying 55.5kg at $2.60. Fitter and should appreciate the step up to 2012m.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 42-day let-up. Most recently gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 9 in the G2 Beverly D Stakes at Colonial Downs Turf on August 1 over 1911m, 0.3 len behind Gimme A Nother carrying 55.5kg at $10.10. The run before that came from midfield and scored a big 4 len win at Colonial Downs Inner Turf on June 26 over 1609m defeating Minty with 56kg at $3.90. Knocking on the door.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 42-day let-up. Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 in the G2 Beverly D Stakes at Colonial Downs Turf on August 1 over 1911m, 0.5 len behind Gimme A Nother carrying 55.5kg at $13.20. Before that won by 1.3 len at Churchill Downs Turf on June 25 over 1811m defeating Vino Tiempo with 55.5kg at $4.04. Doesn't need to improve much to play a big role.
