Miss Resolves Doubt at Canberra
Doubtful Miss won a Class 1 1080m when racing resumed on the Acton track at Canberra. She jumped well and settled in second place outside the leader. A horse went around her and she travelled perfectly in the one one to the turn. Brendan Ward pushed out with her and she finished strongly to grind away at the leader and just grab it on the line to win by a nose. A very welcome change of luck for this filly who has been racing consistently and finished second in a head bob last start.
