RANDWICK RACE PREVIEW - SYDNEY CUP DAY 2008

RACE 9-JIM BEAM EMANCIPATION STAKES 1600 METRES 04.40 P.M.

Big O’s Oracle

10 – Shirl Pegasus
6 – Pravana

5 - Deloraine

Shirl Pegasus has been racing well and makes her own luck in running by rolling forward. Drop back to the mile should suit and she’ll hit the front at some point in the straight.

Pravana was ridden upside down last start from the wide barrier and is entitled to another chance if ridden more quietly here. Should be sufficient pace on up front and no reason why she couldn’t run home into the money.

Deloraine snuck into the placings in the Coolmore at cricket score odds and on that form has to be considered here. Drawn to get a soft run again and is getting close to a win this preparation.

Shaggy's Selections

5 - Deloraine

6 - Pravana

7 - Kosi Bay

Deloraine ran home strongly behind Eskimo Queen last start when ridden off the speed and looks drawn to get a nice run here. Go well.

Pravana was caught out on a limb last start and stuck on well. Should be fitter for that run, but the awkward barrier makes this tricky.

Kosi Bay ran home quite well last start and will be much fitter for the recent racing. Looking for this distance now.
