GOING: S(5)

THE TEA HOUSE OPEN DAYS 4-5 MAY RATING 75 1200m

Track: SOFT 5     Out 5m  

The race pace looks strong here from the outset in this 1200m event. LA BELLA NERA (1) she has won her last three runs in a row. Proven on dry and wet too. Speedy and can make it four in succession. SINBIN (8) is very consistent and is a quinella and trifecta must here. She handles it dry and wet too so include no matter the footing posted. KITH 'N' KIN (7) has had no luck in both of her runs here. Otherwise her form since being sent South has been super. Must include everywhere. INFLAMED (2) is up 2kg here for the last start win in this grade. Has won on dry and wet. Stable is going well. SORCHA (13) has gone two good runs so far this time in. Each-way chance here for sure. SUGGESTED PLAY: La Bella Nera and Kith 'N' Kin are win wagers.
