DARLEY OTTAWA STAKES
Results
HAYASUGI (1) sat wide and tried hard on debut behind what looks a very smart filly at Moonee Valley over 1000m. Best of the rest there, she brings a good rating and looks the horse to beat. CHOSEN LEGEND (2) started shorter than Hayasugi on debut having trialled also beaten that horse in a trial prior. Does need to find a little bit but wouldn't shock whatsoever. ARABIAN SUMMER (3) showed very good early speed at Caulfield on debut and was only run down by a well spruiked horse. Will be zipping along in front and gives them something to catch. HARPALEE (8) might be the pick of the debutants. She looked smart winning her latest jumpout and should be respected. KARAVAS (4) got the job done on debut as favourite at Murray Bridge. Harder here but is in the mix.

At debut, raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 13 at Moonee Valley in the LR Inglis 2yo on October 28 over 1000m, 3 len behind Bold Bastille with 56kg at $10. Tried hard on debut behind a smart type and will take beating here.
Was well-supported at debut, 3rd of 13 at Moonee Valley in the LR Inglis 2yo on October 28 over 1000m, 4.5 len behind Bold Bastille carrying 56kg at $3.80. Solid run on debut when well backed and is open to plenty of improvement.
At debut, set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 8 at Caulfield in the LR Debutant Stks on October 18 over 1000m, 1.3 len behind Coleman with 56kg at $11. Showed good speed on debut and should be in this for a long way.
Freshened since claiming her maiden victory on debut; favourite; won by a head at Murray Bridge 2yo Mdn-Sw October 7 over 900m defeating Yes Yes Tess with 55.5kg at $2.10. Harder here but could measure up.
Was well in the market at debut, 2nd in a small field at Murray Bridge 2yo Mdn-Sw on October 7 over 900m, head behind Karavas with 55.5kg at $5. Sound on debut but this is harder.
First starter by Smart Missile out of Al Sahra AUD $ 60,000 (Inglis 2023 Classic Yearling Sale) purchase. Finished second in a trial at Beaudesert October 10. May need this solid hitout.
First-starter by Exceed And Excel out of Sweet Sherry. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Prefer others.
First-starter by Alabama Express out of Storytime. Not seen on the track yet so hard to assess. Looked smart winning latest jumpout. Respect any market push.
Facing the starter for the first time. Two-year-old filly by Extreme Choice out of Crimson Arow. At the most recent trial finished fourth at Cranbourne over 800m. Looking to others for the winner.
