Our resident form analyst Nic Ashman is sticking with VIA SISTINA in the Group 1 Chipping Norton Stakes at Randwick this Saturday.
RANDWICK R8 N8 VIA SISTINA
“Second-up. Beaten favourite when resuming in the Group 2 Apollo Stakes but lost no admirers after missing the start before reeling off the best last 400/200m of the race to finish 3rd,” Ashman said.
“Her last 400m was more than 7L above standard and her last 50m was supreme.”
“If she starts poorly again there’s not a lot of natural speed making her a risk but she has the best sprint and the best stamina so a fair getaway should see her winning.”
The top price around for VIA SISTINA as at Friday afternoon evening was $1.95.
Nic’s tips are striking at 58% since the beginning of last year with 18 collects from 31 selections.
