Sale Race 4

The Black Riddles (1-2 Wins) (275+ Rank)

Stake: $1,775

PACIFIC POPPY (4) won again and recorded an impressive time after running them ragged to make it two on the bounce at this track over 435m (24.72). Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Ideally placed to take this out. DR. VIENNA (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (25.48) at this track behind Little Thief in a T3 RSTW. Has the pace to be prominent. Must be included in calculations. MINTER SCORCH (8) has been out of the placings at her last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (23.12) in a Grade 6 at Warragul. Can improve sharply here. DR. DOUGLAS (6) is a last start winner who rates one of the chances again.

Flew the lids with a strong early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 2 lengths over 435m at this track (24.91). Coming out of a very strong form race. Can feature with the right run.

Could only manage eighth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (24.85) over 435m at this track. Drawn out wide and will need the right run to feature.
