GOING: G(4)

Monty Samuel (Bm70) 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Partly Cloudy   Rail: Out 13m Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.19).  

They should run along in this and set a fairly quick tempo. Big speed engaged here. Miss Vista has done it from the front in both of her outings to this point. Moqla, Run Charlie Run and Billabong Babe are all on pace horses. They should rip along. Big boom on MISS VISTA. May be unjustified in the long run but she is not just a pretty face. Both wins to this point have been above average performances and they have placed her well for her return run. AMERISTRALIA is a huge threat. Has a fitness edge and her winning form has been working out really well. Demands respect. MOQLA was well beaten first up but pulled up with excuses. She's better than that and tipping we see a much improved performance today. No shock to see her right in the finish. SUGGESTED PLAY: Miss Vista is not just a pretty face and happy to have her on top returning.
