GOING: S(5)

MP SECURITY RATINGS BAND 0 - 55 Handicap 1400m

Track: SOFT 5   Rain (Max: 27)   Rail: Out 6m Entire. (Pent: 5.75).  

Expecting Hangin' Around to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. HANGIN' AROUND (7) led and improved sharply leading and winning a Mackay Maiden as expected. Draws to advantage and key stable striker Stanley goes on. In the top local barn and fitter can take the next step. BOLD TYRANT (9) rates similarly off his first up Maiden win here. Did it comfortably and has been freshened. He's trialled well since and Wiggins stays aboard. Will have come on and a repeat win isn't out of the question. LYNRIC LASS (8) didn't handle the heavy track here last time but won here prior in a 65. Keeps the 2kg claim and a bounce is likely. SHEEZALITTLETORQUE (11) has been kept on the fresh side and may be next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: Staying with Hangin' Around.
