2020 EPONA STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Very tricky affair with a number of these more than capable on best form. On paper there looks to be good speed and every horse should get their chance.

LUVALUVA (1) was in very good form before failing to fire in New Zealand when sent out favourite (9/4) in the Group 1 Herbie Dyke Stakes. Did have excuses there and she has since trialled well at Warwick Farm. Like her on the fresh side and she appears well placed despite giving weight away.

GREYSFUL GLAMOUR (2) won well fresh before disappointing last start. Better than that and can bounce back in a big way. PAINT THE TOWN TWO (3) hits this on the up having won well at Flemington last start. Was big odds there (25-1) but they find JMac and she has to be respected. ALIFEROUS (4) is tracking well this time in and appears the next in line.
