Daily Racing Tips – Wednesday, August 14

This looks a nice race for Chief Conductor back in grade.

The son of I Am Invincible was unsuited by the heavy track last start at Randwick, finding the wrong part of the track in the run home where he went on to finish midfield.

He’s drawn a perfect gate this time back over 1000m and the booking of James McDonald signals plenty of intent from the stable.

Serene Nic is a live chance here if she gets some luck from the wide gate.

The daughter of Nicconi flashed home late to win over the mile at Warwick Farm a few weeks ago, lapping up the soft conditions to win with plenty left to give through the line.

She’s in well at the weights with Jason Collett in the saddle and is likely to find the slightly shorter trip acceptable.

Amoursirra is a promising mare on the rise for trainers Mick Price and Michael Kent Jr.

She showed her class winning her maiden on debut at Pakenham earlier in the year before going on to finish midfield in a Group 3 later in the autumn.

Excuses were offered fresh at Caulfield last month when she was held up badly down the straight, but this does look a much more winnable assignment with the gate in her favour.

Starianne presents fitter third-up following a difficult run in transit off a wide gate last start.

She was game to the line fresh when finishing a distant third to Kiko, a horse that has since gone on to run well against tougher company since.

Her wet track form is the main query, but in a race stacked full of chances, she has big claims with improvement to come.
