GOING: H(10)

JIM TURNER-MANN MEMORIAL COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN HANDICAP 1007m

Track: HEAVY 10   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 3m Entire.  

Aside from the first starters there should be speed from Angelinthenightsky and Vandelight from a wide gate. VANDELIGHT (13) backs up after being run down at Muswellbrook last week on a heavy track. Drops 2kg on that and should be at peak now after three runs back. Hard to beat. ANGELINTHENIGHTSKY (6) also led at her latest appearance and was run down, over this course last week. Drawn to be prominent and is a definite chance. PRINCE IS GAME (7) is locally trained and on debut after a nice trial on heavy ground last week. Keep safe. KAIYU (10) and IDOL SHOT (4) are among the chances. SUGGESTED PLAY: Vandelight to win.
