MISS BOSS LADY has transformed into a potent staying machine since administered lasix for her two races this month, and should land Satur-day's Calvin O'Sullivan Memorial at 1820 metres.

The four-year-old United States-bred filly stunned punters at 23-1 on March 2, storming from off the pace at 1400 metres to sweep past LUMINOUS TRIESTE inside the final furlong.

So bubbly was the Fitzgerald Richards-trained filly that she was brought back a week later, up in class among overnight allowance horses, and just failed to grab AVENTURA at a mile in 1:39.4.

MISS BOSS LADY had KIPLING WEEKEND a length and a half behind in third. The form was franked a week later when KIPLMNG WEEKEND returned to deny super-fit LASHING FORCE at 1200 metres.

MISS BOSS LADY's second run on Lasix, getting within a half length of AVENTURA, was a big effort as she was the only horse coming forward after making up ground off the turn.

In fact, six of eight rivals she will face on Saturday were behind her that afternoon and not gaining an inch.

A steamy pace is expected, which should suit MISS BOSS LADY's late-kicking style with Omar Walker aboard to power her home up the lane.

THERE GOES JUSTIN and HOMBRE are bound to go at it on the lead with UNCLE DONNY and JET SETTER lurking in the wings.

striking distance

However, MISS BOSS LADY's turn of foot into the lane should bring her into striking distance of the speedsters. Stamina should tell from there and she has not been found wanting this month.

Form players should have a go at accumulator bets tomorrow using RAGING PROSPECT in the opening event at 1820 metres, MARCI THE BUTCHER in the third at 1100 metres, NOON IT IS in the fifth at the same trip and the four-year-old debutant, SCOOP JORDYNE, who has worked better than the class, clocking 1:31.0 upside TIMEFORARMS last Saturday morning.

Those hunting better odds in riskier races can zero in on Wayne DaCosta's MR LUVAL in the second race at 1200 metres. Dick Cardenas replaces apprentice Holanda Butler who rode a timid race when finishing second to FAMILY TRADITION last time out.

Also, THE LEGACY gets a nine-pound swing in the scale on SAINT MARY in the fourth and is perfectly drawn at post-position 12 to notch a quick double off a claim, fresh out of the champion trainer's barn.
