Bunbury   04 Dec 2016
 
GOING: G(4)

Philmac Mdn 1200m

Track: GOOD 4   Mostly Clear   Rail: Rail is at the inside position.  

Speed anticipated from Persona, Mythical Saga, Travellin' Jet and A Patch On Knee. Travellin’ Jet the likely leader. MUSICAL ART has placed 3/3 and resumes off a Lark Hill trial win. Draws well and will take a power of beating. PERSONA is well bred and debuts off two trial win here and the latest by a space. Draws to perfection and looks ready to fly. OUTER DETENTION was good on-speed here on debut and then got too far back placing as favourite. Is sure to feature with a better run. MR UNDERCOVER and YUKON GOLD are improvers in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Very keen on Musical Art.

Six-year-old mare lining up for debut. She attracted attention when winning barrier trial by a dominating 3 lengths at Bunbury over 1000m on Nov 22. Good draw will assist chances. Keep very safe on debut.
