2019 SUNLINE STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

NAANTALI (6) couldn't peg back SPANISH REEF (4) at Flemington last time and now they come to the Valley in the race that Spanish Reef made her own last year. Career peak here last year from Spanish Reef and is she can replicate that then she will keep Naantali at bay once again. That pair hold the aces.

I AM A STAR (1) has been plain in her latest couple but she has a great Valley record and not giving up entirely on her just yet. SHEEZDASHING (7) can be a sharp second-up improver.

1600m TURF GOOD

Form Preview

New Zealand mare Consensus scored a narrow but good win here, her third win from her last four starts and her sixth Group success in 54 starts. She had a good trip in fourth place, one off the rails, challenged at the home turn and finished best to score well. Spanish Reef, winner of this race last year, went to the front, was challenged strongly nearing the home turn and kept fighting gamely for a very good second. Kenenda raced in last place in the ten-horse field, got along the inner rounding the home turn, switched out halfway down the straight and then finished strongly for an eye-catching third at her second run back. Naantali raced in sixth place (tacking the eventual winner), moved up wide coming to the home turn, challenged at the 200m and held on well for (1.1 lengths) fourth while the South Australian-trained mare Blue Morpho raced behind the leader and then battled on really well for (1.2 lengths) fifth.
