GOING: H(10)

GLOUCESTER CUP 6 MAY MAIDEN PLATE 1262m

Track: HEAVY 10   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: Out 3m Entire.  

Not high speed and that could allow Rum Diary to get across, Shez Lethal and Chaserlette are the other on pacers of those that have raced. RUM DIARY (1) looks the one to beat after one run back for a closing third at Wyong a couple of weeks ago. Done nothing wrong and with even luck from the gate should take beating. SHEZ LETHAL (8) has been around the mark without winning of late and draws nicely again. One of the main chances. CHASERLETTE (6) dropped in trip when four over 1000m here earlier in the month so the rise in trip again will suit. Definite chance. GIVE IT A NUDGE (10) and AMPLE TIME (4) are worth considering. SUGGESTED PLAY: Rum Diary to win. Trifecta 1-4,6,8,10/4,6,8,10.
