Snowden optimistic Hurry Miss can break duck at Hawkesbury
Snowden has started the Yulong-owned daughter of Alabama Express four times, and she has been placed in each of them, including a resuming second at Kembla Grange.
'She's always shown us her share of ability,' said Snowden. 'She was placed at Kembla Grange on debut and then had a couple of city placings in her second preparation.
'She resumed the other day at Kembla Grange again and went down narrowly when second again. She's drawn the rails at Hawkesbury and should get every chance to break through.'
Snowden has two other runners set to go around at Hawkesbury, with Look Here lining up in the Blakes Marine Maiden Handicap (1100m) with Andrew Adkins in the saddle.

He also has Sukeban, to be ridden by Tom Sherry, lining up in the XXXX Gold Class 1 Handicap (1100m).
Look Here is on debut after four trials including two recent hitouts, while Sukeban is resuming having won the Romantic Dream at Tamworth in April.
Meanwhile, champion jockey James McDonald will make a rare midweek appearance at a Hawkesbury provincial meeting when he heads to the track to partner Tuscany in the Blakes Marine Maiden Handicap (1100m) for Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, and Golden Century for Chris Waller in the Pioneer Services Maiden Plate (1500m).

Melbourne Cup plans grow for US stayer Parchment Party
Don't miss out on the headlines from Horse Racing. Followed categories will be added to My News. Melbourne Cup-qualified American stayer Parchment Party has boosted potential Flemington claims with a second stakes win in New York. The Pin Oak Stud-owned four-year-old son of Constitution, trained by Bill Mott, on Thursday (AEST) won the Listed Birdstone Stakes (2800m) at Saratoga. Parchment Party won a Melbourne Cup golden ticket in June with a victory in the Group 3 Belmont Gold Cup Invitational (2800m). • PUNT LIKE A PRO: Become a Racenet IQ member and get expert tips – with fully transparent return on investment statistics – from Racenet's team of professional punters at our Pro Tips section. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Owner Dana Bernhard, of Pin Oak Stud, told the Saratoga Live broadcast 'it's our plan' when asked about possible Melbourne spring carnival participation. Pin Oak Stud-owned World Beater, trained by Mott's son Riley, coincidently won the Cox Plate-qualifying Group 1 Saratoga Derby Invitational last week. The interest in two horses qualified for Australia's biggest races could sweeten the cost and logistics to travel from the US to Melbourne via quarantine at Newmarket, UK. 'We're leaning in that (Melbourne) direction,' Bill Mott told Saratoga Live. 'We're trying to make all the early plans that we need to make.' Parchment Party could become the first US-trained horse to start in the Melbourne Cup. Five US-bred horses have won a Melbourne Cup with French-trained Australian-owned Americain the most recent in 2010. Victoria Racing Club chief racing officer Leigh Jordon welcomed Parchment Party's progress. 'It was great to see Parchment Party win the Birdstone Stakes and the excitement from the ownership group following the race,' Jordon said. 'They are currently looking at travel options for the horse and the prospect of Parchment Party becoming the first American-trained horse to run in the Lexus Melbourne Cup has created an incredible buzz. 'We're proud to have strengthened our relationship with the New York Racing Association by making the Belmont Gold Cup a golden ticket into the Lexus Melbourne Cup. It is part of the (VRC's) ongoing commitment to growing the international reach of the race and build meaningful relationships across the world.'
