GRAEME LEHMANN HAPPY RETIREMENT Maiden Handicap 1200m Track: SOFT 6 Rail: True. |

---|---|---|---|---|
Kobe Ascot may get a soft lead. TOROS (8) just missed at the Sunshine Coast and following was outgraded in a strong form race at Doomben. She's been freshened and has ticked over with a trial win. Has an awkward barrier but is much better suited and should go close. ROCK LOBSTER (10) was narrowly beaten at Doomben two back and resumed at Gatton with a solid effort. She's a winning chance. KOBE ASCOT (1) will run along and is busting to win. Will be tough to peg back. INSPIRATIONAL DIVA (7) is a likely improver from the sharp Vandyke yard. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Toros.
