2019 THEO MARKS STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS

Another key highlight with star WA mare Arcadia Queen set to step out on debut for the Chris Waller stable. Expect a solid tempo over the 1300m journey.

ARCADIA QUEEN (6) couldn't have been more impressive in her first preparation, making the jump from maiden company to winning the Group 1 Kingston Town Stakes by 4.5L in just six starts. Kicks off over 1300m which is a big tick and she looks to have settled in well to her new surroundings. JMac legs aboard and she should take a power of beating from the favourable draw.

TROPE (11) only went down narrowly first up and is expected to improve sharply racing second up. Racing pattern is low percentage, but he is very talented and should be very strong late. BALLER (12) won well last weekend and has to be kept safe, while ZOUSAIN (2) remains under strong notice in his return.
