SUPER SATURDAY PLATE
Results
Very tough. PIVOT CITY (7) was beaten at very short odds first up over 1000m and again beaten last time but the effort was good over 1200m in the G3 Zedative Stakes. He's by Not A Single Doubt so really should appreciate the rise in trip again. LEGACIES (3) was good in the Zedative first up and will have no issue with this trip. She's always promised plenty and it wouldn't shock to see her take this out. SCHEELITE (1) was just even first up in the Zedative but will improve out to 1400m. Sure to be running on. VIVY AIR (5) is interesting. She won first up last time in before running second to the talented Coeur Volante at this trip. Will be hitting the line. SCULLY (2) beat a few key rivals home in the Zedative at 100-1. Must be a chance.
