2020 MISSILE STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Another key highlight with this year's Group 2 Missile Stakes. Speed looks solid enough with both Special Reward and Eduardo expected to take it up.

FLIT (5) went to the paddock off a near peak performance when narrowly beaten in the Arrowfield Sprint. Yet to miss the money fresh and her best performance came when first up last preparation. The blinkers go back on and the booking of JMac is a further push. Drawn to take up a position and shapes as one of the hardest to beat.

EDUARDO (10) proved too strong in his stable debut for Joe Pride and was rated right up to his best. That's a solid platform for this and he should find the front for Nash. Major threat. MELODY BELLE (4) kicks off her Spring preparation and while this is short of her best, you have to respect her class. SAVATIANO (13) goes like a bomb fresh and has to be kept safe.
