Scottsville Sunday race previews

Scottsville Sunday race previews Sep 25 by Andrew Harrison

Preview: ACCIDENTAL TOURIST has shown up well in both starts and should be right there again. DELECTABLE DESIRE found good market support on debut but found one too good on the day. She can go one better here. FASHION QUEST raced green in a promising debut and the form of that race has worked out well. HOT MAMBO showed up well on debut and is another that is sure to improve. (Andrew Harrison: 6-9-10-12)

Preview: Some nicely bred first timers here. Will pay to watch the betting. CABINDA has put in two smart efforts over course and distance since returning from a break and gelding. He should go close again. SCENT OF THE TIGER improved nicely at his second outing and can feature. CHICAGO BEAT blew the start when favourite last outing and was then hampered on the turn. Back to a sprint and has a chance on previous. UP AND UNDER returns from a long break but made marked improvement when tried in blinkers and switching to the turf. (Andrew Harrison: 8-14-1-3).

Preview: RAND HEDGE also returns from a break. He has been a beaten favourite at his last three starts but has been racing in useful company. AMAZON KING improved nicely at his second start and can improve further. VARADISO also showed good improvement on his debut run. He has had a short rest since but the stable is in very good form. GOOD TEAM needed his last run. He has gone well over course and distance and can place. (Andrew Harrison: 4-7-16-1)

Preview: INTERFERMETER has improved with each run and should enjoy the extra. He looks to have a bright chance. CAPTAIN OF ROCK didn’t feature when tried in blinkers. Blinkers are off. He made a smart debut and has a big chance on a repeat showing. AIR SALUTE made a promising debut at long odds. He switches to the turf but can feature again. SABRE CHARGE has not been too far back in his first two starts and can still improve. (Andrew Harrison: 8-1-4-12)

Preview: MAGIC MEMORY was a very easy winner last time out only for the race to be abandoned with all the jockeys not heeding a call for a false start. She does not have the best of draws here but a repeat of her last showing will make her hard to beat. JAY JAY’S GIRL has shown some promise in two starts and has a much better draw this time around. KUTLWANOSLOVE was green in a fair sprint debut and will much prefer this trip. BLUE HYDRANGEA raced green on debut and is another who will do better over this trip. (Andrew Harrison: 13-11-12-8)

Preview: Competitive fillies handicap. A WOMENS WAY had to dig deep to win the Gr2 Debutante Stakes but is unbeaten in two. She has a light weight and could have too much class. FREE STATE is lightly raced but has yet to finish out of the money. She should be right there. LITTEBLACKNUMBER returns from a break but has good form in strong company and goes well for this jockey. WELL IN FLIGHT has been competitive in useful company of late and with a claiming apprentice up she can feature. CALL ME WINTER made no show in a stakes race last outing but won well in her first two and is one to keep an eye on. (Andrew Harrison: 9-2-1-5)

Preview: Wide open with very little separating the older brigade. LILY GRAY is way overdue for her third win but always finds one or two better. She has dropped a further point in the ratings and that may just be enough. VINE STREET STAR showed up nicely first time out of the maidens and there should not be much between her and POSTER GIRL who showed signs of a form return last time out. KINGSVIEW has improved in blinkers but needs to repeat her last showing. (Andrew Harrison: 12-10-6-14)

Preview: ASSTAR hardly raised a gallop when sent out favourite for his last start but has smart form before that. He has a big weight but now wears blinkers and at best he is the horse to beat. SAINT MARCO returns from a very long break but is useful and has a light weight. MUSCATT is at his best over course and distance but has not been out since April and could need this outing. SWAKOPMUND found his best form when returning from a break. He is out at the weights but could still be slightly ahead of the handicappers. (Andrew Harrison: 1-5-2-8)

Preview: Wide open. MISS MINVER returns from a break but has shown ability and scope to improve. She tries blinkers and jumps from a plum draw. LA GITANO has been consistent and goes well this trip. She had a tough draw last time out and can do better here. TYRON’S JET has a tricky draw to overcome but showed up well to stronger last time out and can feature here on her turf debut. OVERLY IMPRESSED is lightly raced but has yet to run a bad race and can feature although she too has a difficult draw. (Andrew Harrison: 4-3-7-6)

Preview: FLORRICK has a tricky draw but showed up well in her local debut and may be the one to beat. PIPPIN also has a wide draw to contend with but has improved in blinkers and should be running on at the death. CRYSTAL RIVER improved nicely at her second outing and should much prefer this trip. She jumps from a good draw. MERMAID SIREN raced green on debut but will much prefer this trip and should improve. (Andrew Harrison: 1-2-8-15)
