GOING: S(6)

JOHN SPILLANE Maiden Plate 1500m

Track: SOFT 6     Rail: True.  

A number can race forward and expect a solid tempo over the 1500m. CATHAY BRACELET (11) switched from a sharp Sydney barn and resumed with a near-miss at Gatton over 1400m as a short-price favourite. Brought strong provincial form to that and the step up to the mile will be right up her alley. ITALIAN VIRTUOSO (2) will race forward from the handy barrier and has been unlucky not to have broken through in stronger Maidens. Gets in light today with a 4kg claim and has been kept on the fresh side. A live chance. track. PETERMAN (6) was better at Gatton and is a likely improver. PUNJABI LANDING (7) debuts and has trialled well at Beaudesert. Keep onside. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Cathay Bracelet.
