2019 LEE STEERE STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS
Great Shot will lead but could be pressured by Majinika and The Velvet King also has some speed.
ACHERNAR STAR (4) was finishing hard when narrowly beaten three weeks ago over this course and looks ready to win. THE VELVET KING (5) just held him off to score in the Northerly and meets him on the same weight terms. Must be respected.
GREAT SHOT (2) will lead and give a bold sight as usual for him. Not beyond him to hold them off. GATTING (1) won this last year and was a G1 winner in Melbourne three starts back. ARCADIA PRINCE (6) resumes and is next best.
