GOING: S(5)

LEST WE FORGET 3YO MAIDEN PLATE 1200m

Track: SOFT 5   Clouds (Max: 18)   Rail: Out 4m Entire.  

Lots of speed predominantly from Khaznah and Je Reve. STAR ACT (10) has been well backed at both runs this prep but found one better on each occasion, most recently when comfortably beaten over 1300m at Newcastle. Back in trip is a plus, as is the senior rider going on. Worth another chance. KHAZNAH (7) made it three minor placings from as many career runs when he led for home but was reined in by the winner soon after over 1100m at Wyong. Freshened up and sure to give a ton of cheek around this tight circuit. SWEET PROPOSAL (11) returns from a 25-week break. Only raced twice last prep, the best effort the second of those runs over 1280m at Muswellbrook. Two recent trials should have her ready to perform. JE REVE (2) recorded his fourth minor placing from just appearances when he led but was cut down late over this trip at Newcastle 12 days ago. Sure to be prominent for a long way. VERBIL (4) is a Fastnet Rock three-year-old on debut for Annabel Neasham. Won a Randwick trial in good style on 15 April. Watch the betting. SUGGESTED PLAY: Star Act maps nicely and is due to win.
