BJ YOUNG EARTHMOVING HANDICAP 1300m Track: GOOD Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Small field in which Denzoe can find the front comfortably at a moderate tempo. CAPTAIN CROCKET (4) did not kick on as expected after clearing his maiden status at Northam and has since changed stables. He should appreciate country grade racing and this is now his home track. Hard to beat, especially if the money comes for him. DENZOE (3) franked his improved effort for second in his penultimate run with a game all the way win at Geraldton a fortnight ago. She should be suited to this circuit and another win is not beyond her. GRECE LIGHTNING (5) battled on fairly at Geraldton when fifth in the same race as the second pick. His efforts before that to open this campaign were good and he can bounce straight back into the money here. Each-way. AL MAGICO (1) is a tough veteran who is always competitive in this class and has also been a winner on this track in the past. He might need the run but is too good to dismiss in this lineup. SUGGESTED PLAY: Captain Crocket to win.
