GOLD COAST POLY   27 Apr 2024
 
GOING: N

WE RIDE AT NIGHT MAY 24 Maiden Plate 1150m

Track: SYNTHETIC     Rail: True.  

Casino Coast is expected to lead at a strong tempo. PEARL IN HAY (9) had to come from last and make a run around the field but hit the line nicely into third on debut at this track over 1200m. Drawn wide but showed enough on debut to suggest she is capable of winning this. WATERMELON (5) has raced in three states in four career starts and was only narrowly denied at the Sunshine Coast when having his first start for a new stable last start. Charged home there from last and expect him to be finishing strongly again. EXCEED TO AMBITION (7) gave a great sight here two starts back when close second over 1050m then had to cover ground last time which took away from her finish. From a better draw she should give a sight again. Don't underestimate CASINO COAST (1) despite a wide draw again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Siding with Pearl In Hay.

Will need plenty of improvement to feature.

Going well. Most recently 4th of 9 at this track 3yo Mdn on April 20 over 1050m, 7 len behind Missile One carrying 54.5kg at $15. Before that gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 10 at this track Mdn-Sw on April 13 over 1050m, neck behind Littlemisscancan with 54kg at $7. Rock-hard fit racing for the third week in a row. Trapped three wide throughout last week but from a slightly better draw can run another bold race here.
