GOING: S(5)

GTS LAWNPRIDE COUNTRY BOOSTED MAIDEN SHOWCASE PLATE 1400m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 22)   Rail: True.  

Genuine tempo with Prince Carlos to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. SUNSET PANORAMA (11) indicated a win was imminent after rattling late at big odds when third over 1350m at Wyong on April 11. Near her top now third-up and looks well suited in this class. GLORIEN (8) hard fit for this and placed this trip last time in. Made up ground inside final 200m when fourth over 1300m at Armidale on April 15. Quick back-up suits again from the good draw. KEYLESS GO (1) staying type resuming from a four-and-a-half-month break. Raced in tougher company last time and has the ability to sprint well fresh with the claim in this grade. I AM DUTCH (9) holding her form well and looks close to a win with the 4kg card. Found the line strongly from the wide gate when third over 1600m at this track on April 8. A repeat of latest keeps her in the mix. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 11,8,1,9.
