GOING: G

Catanach's Jewellers Plate 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 15)   True Entire Circuit  

Anticipating a stack of early pressure over the sprint course with many of these at the races for the first time. THINK ROCK (3) deserves a winning turn having placed in all three runs this prep, including last time out over 1000m at Cranbourne, when after sitting in behind the speed fought on well to the line to finish second of nine when sent out as the favourite. Jumps from an inside gate and looks ideally placed here to go one better. SUPPOSE I DO (2) resumes from a spell having finished eighth of 12 last start over 1200m at Pakenham Synthetic after getting checked at the start. Drawn a wide gate but has placed twice previously when produced fresh-up and should be figuring in the finish. Worth an each-way ticket. OUR WARHORSE (9) makes her racing debut today and although not having had a trial run has placed in two recent jump-outs. Out of a mare who won five races including her maiden race over today's distance. Consider. MARBILLA (8) is trained here and having had the benefit of a recent trial run over 950m at Traralgon should strip fit enough. Jumps from an inside gate can place fresh-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Think Rock to win.
