GOING: S

Core Protective Group 3YO Maiden Plate 1000m

Track: SOFT 7   Rain (Max: 15)   Rail: Out 7m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.84).  

Plenty of first starters engaged which makes for a tricky map. It is reasonable to assume a genuine tempo over this sprint course. PHARARI (9) resumes having run second by the barest of margins on both occasions in her debut campaign. She was heavily supported at both starts which is always a good indicator and with a spell under the belt she can justify that early faith. OHSHE'STROUBLE (7) resumes having run a narrow fifth on debut at Moonee Valley before a spell. That form should hold up and she's won a jump out leading in. FIRST BEACH (3) is a colt by Nicconi on debut who has looked smart at the jump outs. Should be ready to run well. OUR WARHORSE (8) is a filly by Warhorse on debut in a smart stable who can figure. SUGGESTED PLAY: Keen on Pharari.
