2019 BELLE OF THE TURF STAKES – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS
Statuesquely to lead from Toryjoy and Commute at a brisk gallop. TORYJOY (2) raced on the speed and proved a shade too strong when resuming over 1400m at Rosehill last start. Genuine mare who runs best for Kathy O'Hara - she retains the ride today. Likely to hold the good form second up and is the one they have to beat.
STATUESQUELY (7) ran them along at a solid clip but knocked up badly in the 1800m race won by Adana at Rosehill 20 days ago. Better placed back to this trip and will be tough to catch around this tight circuit.
AQUA D'IVINA (1) charged home to win by a whisker over the mile at Kembla two starts back. Didn't measure up in the Villiers last time but worth another chance in this more suitable grade. MISS REDOBLE (4) was beaten a length in a Listed race over this trip at Hawkesbury three starts back. In the mix on that form.
