GOING: G

Bunbury Apartment Motel Mdn 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear   Rail: Out 5m.  

Speed anticipated from Tow Rope, Foo Trouble, Loads Of Dreams and Jester Dini. Tow Rope and Foo Trouble can make the speed. FINANCIAL SUPPORT should clear the gate okay and is ready to win 3U off the two placings. Keeps Pike and gets the winkers first time. TOW ROPE resumes and has placed 8/10. Has trialled and won’t need to improve much to be right in it. FOO TROUBLE is knocking on the door and the claim assists. LOADS OF DREAMS debuts off a big Lark Hill trial win and gets the blinkers first time. Draws handy and keep very safe. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Financial Support.
