Port Augusta   21 Apr 2024
 
GOING: G

Spencer Gulf Coaches Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: GOOD   Clear (Max: 23)   Rail: True.  

Strong early tempo with Chuckamicky ahead of Emmooki Magic and Oli Alpine. CHUCKAMICKY (7) put the writing on the wall last start when chasing gamely into the placings. Cherry-ripe now and is a leading player. EMMOOKI MAGIC (9) showed good early dash last start at Clare, only to be nailed for a minor placing late. Comes through some handy enough maidens and is expected to measure up. ME NAME'S HARRY (5) was well below his best when resuming at the latest. Better for the run and gets in low at the weights with the 3kg claimer engaged. Expecting sharp improvement second-up. THE PHARMACIST (6) yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest effort a seventh over 1100m at Oakbank three weeks ago. Fitter and drawn well. In the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Chuckamicky to win.
