Our insider Blue Diamond Preview Tips for Fillies in 2022 will be published below the week of the race so stay tuned.
- To Win: #5 Jewellery ($3.80 at time of publish)
Open affair as these two-year-old races are, but hard to knock the favourite who is still at a very backable price around $3.80 at time of publish. She was good on debut at this track and distance when runner-up to Philosopher against the boys. From a wide run throughout, she was excellent late and ran through the line strongly. Fitter second-up back against her own kind, she’s got a taste for it now and should be hard to beat.
