Satellite Miss is a six-year-old Bay mare having raced on 24 occasions with one win and five placings earning prize-money exceeding $29,000, her last prep was effected by a spate of heavy tracks concluding on synthetic venues, it will be refreshing to hopefully see her get back onto the turf.
Her last race was at Pakenham on the synthetic on July 19 finishing 10 of 11 in a BM 58 handicap over 1200 m with Patrick Keane aboard arriving 7.4 lengths behind the winner in a time of 1:13.43 on that occasion.
The stable would like to wish connections the best of luck should she gain a start at Wodonga on Monday.
