Well with the Bendigo meeting off because of heavy rain on Wednesday it left us with just Canterbury and Gawler meetings. The Sydney meeting had some interesting winners with Catchy's full sister recording her maiden win in the benchmark 69. Symi held off some late challenges to record victory and the first leg of a race to race double for Fastnet Rock as the five year old gelding Metamorphic won the next for the Waller/ James Mcdonald combo.
- Symi and Fastnet Rock -- Fastnet Rock filly Symi was the centre of attention at Canterbury on Wednesday and after leading all the way she showed plenty of fight to get a win in the Benchmark 69 over 1250 metres. "She jumped well, travelled beautifully in the run and dug deep when it mattered, and she'll improve a lot off that too."said trainer, Michael Hawkes. She is out of the Fusaichi Pegasus mare Cats Whiskers making her a full sister to Catchy. Her win was followed in the next race by the lightly raced Fastnet Rock gelding Metamorphic winning the BM74 over 1250m for Chris Waller. Its also worth noting the win of Its Fait Accompli in the last here who is also out of a Fusaichi Pegasus mare in Rhema. The five year old Stratum gelding has now won 172,000 dollars in prizemoney after winning the Narrandera Cup 1600m last start.

- Jamie Kah and Hikaya -- Jamie Kah continued on with her success at the Gawler meeting having wins on Hikaya a three year old filly by O'reilly out of the Encosta De Lago mare,Bint Piavonic for Tony Mcevoy. She was first up today over the 1200m trip and did it on her own speed never really pushed out by Jamie to break her maiden status. The O'reilly's when fresh are definately a betting proposition. While the Ryan Balfour trained Masipeg got home in the BM 64 for mares over 1200m. She is also out of an Encosta De Lago mare, Essence of Success.
O'Reilly filly Hikaya defies a betting drift to break her maiden. https://t.co/Ohhei3jVBL pic.twitter.com/22YufLn8qe— Racing.com (@Racing) August 8, 2018
