GOING: N

BLOWFISH OCEAN GRILL + BAR QTIS Three-Year-Old Maiden Handicap 1050m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True.  

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Missile One. MISSILE ONE (6) is a consistent commodity who has hit the top five in all five starts to date and strikes a very winnable contest here. Gets 2kg off from the inside marble and should be shedding the maiden status. EXCEED TO AMBITION (11) put in a career-best performance when runner-up over this track and trip last time out and will be at her peak for this. Can give backers a sight. EPIC FLASH (1) resumes here but showed enough when last in work to warrant consideration in a race like this. Respect while fresh. SILVERADO MISS (8) is at the races for the first time and any market moves must be noted. SUGGESTED PLAY: Missile One to get the job done.
