GOING: G(4)

PHILLIP PICONE HANDICAP 1500m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 20)   Rail: True. (Pent: 5.14).  

Broadfield and Urban Outlook should push forward from wide gates and establish a genuine tempo. RHYTHM OF LOVE (4) fourth-up for this and has a fitness edge over most of these. Much better showing when sat on the speed to run third in a tight finish in the LR South Pacific Classic at Randwick over 1400m on April 13. Reunites with Rawiller, who won on him three back and should prove hard to stop. RUBY FLYER (1) handy gelding who won well on the heavy (8) track on resumption before having no luck when eighth over 1400m at Randwick in the Provincial CF on April 13. Claim helps from the good draw. GREEN SHADOWS (7) looks to have come back much stronger this prep after launching late when resuming for a dominant 1.4 len win over 1400m at Warwick Farm on April 1. Goes just as well second-up and Parr sticks. DESIAH (10) improving mare who made it two wins from three starts when a neck winner over 1400m at Warwick Farm on April 1. Drawn to get the right run and looks up to this class. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 4,1,7,10.
