GOING: G

Creaser Constructions Maiden Plate 1100m

Track: GOOD 4     Rail: True.  

Genuine early tempo from See De Night spearing across from an outside gate and Star Studded Belle also pushing on. WADAANA (11) comes through a strong maiden race at Gawler after narrowly missing first-up at Clare. Form bodes well and is drawn to advantage. Big chance. WORLD AFFAIRS (4) has produced two solid efforts to kick off the campaign and should be nearing his peak now. Expecting him to settle in behind the leaders and peel out with a strong run when they straighten. FALLING LEAVES (8) also resumes and will be looking to build upon her solid efforts last time in. Don't underestimate with Tourneur piloting. EMERALD REWARD (5) good effort on debut last start when he closed very well to finish fifth at Mt Gambier over 900m. Will kick on following that outing. SUGGESTED PLAY: Wadaana to win.
