GOING: G(3)

Nuturf (Bm58) 1100m

Track: GOOD 4   Showers   Rail: True Entire Circuit. (Pent: 5.14).  

Any Given Bender and Autumn Time use the inside barriers to be positive and Miss Procyon can add some pressure from the outside alley. Could be a reasonable tempo with Autumn Time and Presumptuous going forward and Miss Procyon, My Survivor and Any Given Bender also up there. BELIEVING would appreciate a bit of pace and he hit the line hard to just miss when resuming. Fitter and the extra 100m suits so he gets his chance. MY SURVIVOR was a bit too strong to post his 10th career win at this track last time and he's the type that can never be overlooked at this level. PRESUMPTUOUS is coming off an impressive maiden win and is sure to give another good account now he's broken through. Good chances to Autumn Time and Miss Procyon. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Believing.
