Come Dancing In Seattle

- Brendan Gaillard

The Yvette Bremner-trained Dancing In Seattle has been very consistent this year and should put up another decent performanc­e in Race 7, a FM 85 Divided Handicap over 1300m on the Fairview Polytrack today.

This Sail From Seattle filly has been kept to the turf this year and has not disappoint­ed, winning three times and having only raced nine times there could still be improvemen­t to come.

It may be worth noting that Dancing In Seattle failed in her first two starts which were on this surface in 2018.

Clearly though she has improved greatly since then.

Her danger is the classy threeyear-old filly Luna Wish who represents the trainer Alan Greeff and jockey Greg Cheyne combinatio­n.

This Querari filly has been impressive in her three wins this year but is returning from a break.

Jockey Warren Kennedy is clearly chasing the Jockeys’ Championsh­ip and has been lucky enough to get some good rides at this meeting.

Blushing Bride in the fourth race, a Maiden Plate over 1600m, looks the pick of them, and from a good draw Kennedy should chalk up another winner.

When looking for winners it is always best to look at course and distance winners.

In the last race we have two runners who have both done very well over this track and trip.

Elusive Diva was touched off in June by subsequent winner Masterful and followed that up when winning very easily in July.

Her last run which was over 1600m was clearly a bridge too far and she tired late.

Ahead of her that day was Believethi­sbeauty and that could well be the case yet again as Believethi­sbeauty should be fitter.
