Promising filly Shinji appears well placed to make a winning return, when set to contest the Newmarket Handicap at Armidale this afternoon.
Lining up in the sixth event, the daughter of Falvelon has displayed good ability in her short career to date, placing in five of nine attempts.
A three time winner, Shinji wasn't far off the mark in Listed company prior to a break and rates highly in this line up using Timeform weight adjusted ratings.She has won fresh previously and while drawn a touch awkwardly, she is likely to roll forward and camp just off the speed.
If able to run up to her best, she is clearly capable and should prove hard to beat.The Sue Grills trained Flight In Space returned in good order last start and is expected to improve further racing second up.
Overcoming a wide run in transit, the daughter of Sequalo wasn't beaten far at Doomben and is unbeaten at her only prior attempt at this track.He is yet to miss the money in five attempts over this trip and with Sophie Young on board, he has placed in 11 of 12 attempts.
From the middle draw, he is likely to camp right on the back of the speed and should prove hard to hold out.The Melissa Harrison trained Road To Summer flopped prior to a break, however his form prior was very good and sees him well placed, despite the big weight.
A winner of 12 of 42 starts, Road To Summer has placed in three of four attempts fresh and although better over further, he is clearly capable.From the inside draw, he too can push forward for the lead and is expected to be right around the mark.
Of the rest the Luke Griffith trained In Top Gear appears the best of the rest and remains under strong notice.His performance finishing third last start sees him well placed using Timeform weight adjusted ratings and can make his presence felt from the inside draw.
Good luck and happy punting.
