GOING: G(3)

Riverstone Cafe Mdn 1600m

Track: GOOD3   Partly Cloudy   Rail: True | Heavy Dew.  

I Spied and Suo Lin Nang can show speed from the gates. OUTSTANDING has been mixing his distances but ran third at his last attempt at the mile two runs back and was placed again since. If he runs up to those efforts he should be in the finish. A plethora of chances for the multiples in this big maiden field. No shortage of pace and pressure expected from the outset so how the track is presented and is behaving will be critical. The locally trained for today in HOLLYPOP has speed so drawn well and claiming 2kg makes her a win chance. MOYRABELLA is a local too but will remain so after today. On pacer. Trifecta and first four chance. STAROSSA is a run on type so drawing wide is not relevant. I Spied is an on pacer and has to be in all your combinations. Outstanding is racing too well to omit. Marty O'Ceirin and Sylvester are are couple of sly chance to include. SUGGESTED PLAY: Open race - playing the exotics around 5, 9, 13, 8 and 14.
