Northam Race 9

Prime Trophies

Stake: $2,957

BEAUTIFUL STORY (3) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing eighth (31.43) last time in a Grade 5 at The Meadows. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can discover winning form. ARCTIC CROP (2) is a smart beginner who has shown good improvement at her last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 509m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Has definite claims. POP'S STAR (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, most recently finishing 2nd at Cannington over 520m. Overdue and gets her chance. MR. TAYLOR (6) can feature with the right run.
