SANTA ANA LANE SPRINT SERIES FINAL
Results
Tricky little sprint final. LOSESOMEWINMORE (1) looked awesome winning over this route two back when sweeping down the outside to beat DE BERGERAC (2) in fast time before that horse turned the tables back to 1100m last start. Losesomewinmore meets De Bergerac 2kg better off for last time and up to 1200m suits but potentially wants it a bit drier. VESTAS (7) is the interesting runner, now with Clayton Douglas. She hasn't quite delivered on some early promise but was an enormous run in G3 company first up at Caulfield last time in from a mile back. She's certainly up to these if right to go. NDOLA (3) resumes. Don't mind him fresh at 1200m down the straight where he can let rip with his big turn of foot that he has off a moderate tempo. He'll be charging late. ROYAL INSIGNIA (6) wasn't far off stablemate De Bergerac last time and is in the mix again.
