2019 SAPPHIRE STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Irithea, Mandylion and White Moss profile as the likely pacesetters. WINTER BRIDE (6) hit the ground running with victory in the Wenona Girl Quality. Beat Spright on that occasion and now meets her 1.5kg better at the weights for beating her. Ultra-consistent. Easy to like.

SPRIGHT (5) has since come out and finished second in the William Reid Stakes behind Sunlight. Will settle back and be charging home.

INVINCIBELLA (1) resumes. Is versatile and ultra-consistent. Has an excellent first up record and is drawn to get a cosy run.

I AM EXCITED (3) was making some late ground in the Galaxy. Resumed well the start prior when placing in the Triscay Stakes. RESIN (10) next best having placed at Group 3 level in both her runs this prep.

1200m TURF GOOD

Form Preview

White Moss, who took out the Millie Fox Stakes (Gr 2, 1300m) at Rosehill two starts back on February 23, repeated that effort with another Group 2 victory here. She travelled well again for Kathy O'Hara, racing in second place behind a quick pace. She moved up well at the home turn, dashed to the front at the 200m and then went on to win quite impressively. Irithea was smartly away from her wide barrier (15), was eased to race in third place and then kept running on well in the straight for second, beaten less than a length. Winter Bride settled just beyond midfield from her inside barrier (1), got along the inner at the home turn and kept fighting gamely on the rails for third in another very honest effort. Quilista showed her usual pace and led the field at a quick tempo. She was overtaken at the 200m and then battled on quite well for (1.8 lengths) fourth.
