Randwick Race 7

Captivant @ Kia Ora (Bm78)

Stake: $176,000

LIBERTY STATE (8) progressive mare building a solid record. Bounced off her unlucky first-up second to CAPTAIN AMELIA with a slick on-pace victory over 1400m at Randwick Kensington on December 6. Meeting a deeper field this time but fitness should take her a long way from the low draw. AUGUST BLOOM (10) beaten for early speed and warmed up late when resuming for an eye catching eighth over 1200m at this track on December 14. Held in high regard by the stable and can take a hand in the finish today. BUNKER HUT (2) unlucky gelding due for a change of luck after going under narrowly at his two runs back. Looked the winner inside the final 100m before being nailed on the line when second over 1400m at this track last start. Claim helps and the blinkers stay on. HOW DARE YOU (13) bumped into CAPTAIN AMELIA and WINSTON HILLS at her two runs back and drops sharply in weight in this stronger contest. Tempo suits and has genuine top-three prospects.
