GOING: G

Clanbrooke Racing (Bm70) 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain Early   Rail: Out 4m Entire Circuit.  

Won Ball will be handy to the pace. Parwan Prince and Henning from out wide can be the two to contest it. Won Ball might lead them while Parwan Prince is the other major player for the speed. Henning, Credible Witness, Elite Legacy and Capannello can race handy. WON BALL looks a smart type and he resumes as a gelding after a shock defeat at Morphettville back in February. Impressed in other two wins and the one to stop here. SPIRIT OF AQUADA won first-up at the Valley in June then failed badly in two subsequent starts in stronger company. Freshened up, drawn well and a likely improver. PARWAN PRINCE is flying at the moment and hard to leave out though there's more depth here. Chances increase on a wet track. Evil Cry and Toorak Cowboy are capable of running well fresh so keep in mind. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Won Ball to go on improving.
