GOING: S(6)

Qld Building Solutions Hcp-C1 1000m

Track: SOFT 6   Mostly Clear   Rail: True Entire Course. (Pent: 6.34).  

Remlaps Joy looks the most likely to push forward and take up the lead. SMOOTHNAVIGATOR sits handy and won here on debut before placing twice the same venue since resuming. Was slow off last time and impressed a as a firm favourite. Fitter and can break through today. FINE FERGUS hasn’t won for a while but just missed FU recording a career peak. He gets Griffin and can use the 3 gate and go close with a repeat. REMLAPS JOY was heavily backed winning her Maiden 2U and then suffered heat stress when well supported at Ipswich. Has had a month away and should race boldly on the speed. WRITTEN AT DAWN resumes and must be kept safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Looks a good race for Smoothnavigator, play him straight out.
