TRIAL POINTERS

RANDWICK AUGUST 19: Heat winners on the A grass to make an impression included SPIRIT OF WEALTH.

RANDWICK August 5: I have been waiting for Capitalist filly SPIRIT OF WEALTH to reappear since she was placed in her first trial in December. She's an obvious talent as she travelled smoothly under a strong hold in the lead from the start of her 740m heat (44.00; 33.,03) and could have won the heat by a bigger margin if put under pressure.

WARWICK FARM July 26: In the 2YO heats – soon to be 3YOs - the better performers included the heat winner WAL'S ME MATE.

ROSEHILL June 21: Watch for TI AMO TANTO as one who did more than enough to warrant interest when she appears.
