3 minute read

Toby Edmonds has locked in an Epsom start for stablemate Vanna Girl after she finished ninth behind Dreamforce in the Tramway Stakes (Gr 2, 1400m) at Randwick on September 5.

"She was looking for the mile first up the way she raced," Edmonds said.

"It wasn't really run to suit and she was only warming up the last 100 metres.

"With a month between runs, a nice tune-up trial in between, I don't think going into the Epsom second up is going to be a big issue.

She's got good residual fitness from last preparation and we thought if we ran her again she'd be too dour for the mile."

Vanna Girl lined up at Randwick on the back of an 84-day break, having won The Roses (Gr 2, 1200m) at Eagle Farm.
